Horusec
An open source tool that orchestrates other security tools.
Overview
Horusec is an open-source tool that performs static code analysis to identify security flaws. It acts as an orchestrator, running multiple open-source scanning tools (including for IaC) and centralizing the results in a single dashboard. It aims to make security analysis easier and more accessible within the development process.
✨ Key Features
- Orchestrates multiple security scanners
- Supports SAST, SCA, and IaC scanning
- Centralized dashboard for viewing vulnerabilities
- CI/CD integration
- Supports multiple programming languages and IaC frameworks
🎯 Key Differentiators
- Orchestration approach combines the strengths of multiple tools.
- Open-source and highly extensible.
- Provides a centralized dashboard for unified results.
Unique Value: Simplifies the implementation of a diverse static analysis strategy by orchestrating multiple open-source tools and providing a single interface for managing and viewing security vulnerabilities.
🎯 Use Cases (3)
✅ Best For
- Using a single tool to run and manage various open-source scanners.
- Providing developers with a unified view of security issues.
- Automating security analysis for a polyglot codebase.
💡 Check With Vendor
Verify these considerations match your specific requirements:
- Organizations that prefer a single, highly specialized scanning engine over an orchestration approach.
🏆 Alternatives
Instead of providing its own scanning engine, it leverages a collection of existing, well-regarded open-source tools, which can provide broader coverage but may be more complex to manage.
