Veracode Receives Patent for AI-Powered Veracode Fix: Revolutionizing Application Security
In a groundbreaking development, Veracode, a global leader in application risk management, has been awarded a U.S. patent for its innovative generative AI-based security tool, Veracode Fix. This cutting-edge technology is designed to help developers instantly remediate vulnerabilities across 11 programming languages and all integrated environments, significantly enhancing an organization’s cybersecurity posture. With this patent, Veracode continues to solidify its reputation as a pioneer in the field of software security.
Accelerating Vulnerability Remediation with AI
Launched in April 2023, Veracode Fix stands out as the first solution to combine artificial intelligence (AI) with human expertise to automate the remediation of security flaws in code. By automating the process of identifying and fixing vulnerabilities, Veracode Fix enables organizations to accelerate innovation while maintaining robust security throughout the software development lifecycle (SDLC).
According to Tim Jarrett, Group Vice President and Head of Product Management at Veracode, “This patent marks a significant milestone for us. It underscores our commitment to delivering innovative security solutions that empower organizations to manage and remediate application risks at scale.” The patented technology reflects Veracode’s dedication to addressing the growing demand for scalable, efficient, and reliable security tools in today’s fast-paced digital landscape.
Addressing Critical Challenges in Application Security
The newly granted patent (US12229040B2) focuses on solving one of the most pressing challenges in modern application security: remediating risks in complex, multi-layered environments. Leveraging extensive knowledge of code vulnerabilities and advanced AI capabilities, Veracode Fix offers several key benefits:
- Proactive Risk Reduction: By identifying and addressing vulnerabilities early in the development process, Veracode Fix helps reduce the attack surface before it can be exploited.
- Faster Remediation Cycles: Organizations using Veracode Fix have reported a remarkable improvement in efficiency—fixing vulnerabilities up to 16 times faster than traditional methods.
- Enhanced Operational Efficiency: Automating repetitive tasks allows developers to focus on higher-value activities, improving overall productivity.
- Reliable Application Security: The tool ensures applications are secure and reliable, fostering trust among users and stakeholders.
A leading financial services company praised Veracode Fix, stating, “This patent is well-deserved recognition of a truly innovative security solution. As long-time users, we’ve witnessed firsthand how this tool has transformed our development ecosystem. Not only does it enable our teams to fix vulnerabilities at unprecedented speeds, but it also seamlessly integrates security practices into their daily workflows. The result? A dramatic reduction in both remediation cycles and overall risk exposure.”
The Technology Behind Veracode Fix
At the heart of Veracode Fix lies its use of Generative Pre-trained Transformers (GPT), a type of Large Language Model (LLM) that employs deep learning techniques to produce human-like content. Unlike other AI-powered tools trained on insecure or “natural” code environments, Veracode Fix leverages supervised learning based on Veracode’s proprietary dataset. This unique approach ensures the tool delivers highly accurate and actionable recommendations tailored specifically to each organization’s needs.
The idea for Veracode Fix was conceived by a team of world-class application security experts who recognized the transformative potential of GPT technology in revolutionizing software security. Their vision has now come to fruition, empowering developers worldwide to build safer, more resilient applications.
