Doyensec SCA Benchmark
False positives are an inevitable part of using any Software Composition Analysis (SCA) tool, and require security teams to spend hours of triage and research to make findings actionable for developers. As a result, reducing the number of false positives is the primary lever an AppSec team has to save time and money.
Doyensec performed a side-by-side comparison of three popular Software Composition Analysis solutions (Semgrep, Snyk, and Dependabot) to evaluate their ability to determine whether a dependency vulnerability actually introduces an exploitable condition in the application.
