Veracode False-Positive Rate - Time and Costs

Has the false positive rate of the static analysis affected the time you spend on tuning policies? If yes, by how much? Please explain.

We haven't really found many false positives with static analysis, and there hasn't been a significant impact on our time and cost related to tuning, leveraging data, and machine learning.

Static Analysis' false positive rate positively affected time and costs related to tuning, leveraging data, and machine learning. Tuning data is essential as it gives us update optimization within our database, which is helpful for any organization. Veracode is the industry leader in being a one-stop shop security solution; it takes care of every aspect.

Veracode's false positive rate is good, as it helps us identify possible security concerns in our code. In my opinion, it is advisable to run a Veracode scan on all codes. I have worked in the IT industry for five years, and I have observed that Veracode has been implemented in every project I have worked on. If a tool is improving our code quality and providing us with insights into potential security issues, it is always beneficial to use it.

The false positives identified through static analysis have been beneficial in saving us time. Due to our use of advanced tools and record-keeping practices, we have been able to streamline processes such as data importing, which may have otherwise required local or manual methods. This has resulted in significant cost and time savings for our team. With the ability to work remotely using tools like Veracode, we are able to provide effective reporting and management for all software applications.

It saves us a lot of time, about 20 percent, on tuning policies.

Regarding time, static analysis's false positive rate has reduced the amount of time we would have spent using other solutions or the cost of using a high-tech team to do it. Additionally, the cost of accessing running machines in this era is quite expensive. However, if we have the opportunity to use Veracode with its multiple features, I think it is a very good setting for any company during the learning process of using machines.

When conducting the cost-benefit analysis for Veracode after six months, we discovered that there were actually only two significant security breach possibilities. With the assistance of the solution, we were able to detect and resolve these breaches. The most significant advantage provided by the solution was the assurance that no breaches were occurring outside of the office. Any potential risks were either determined to be false alarms or promptly addressed. Therefore, the only actual breaches we encountered during the six-month period were two. However, we also gained a sense of security, which I consider to be a worthwhile trade-off for the cost.

If it had a high false positive rate, it would be difficult to trust this software. We can discover lots of errors and bugs manually, but this software enables us to clear any error or compliance issue with a low false positive rate. It's highly efficient in that sense. We can trust the process, so we spend less time investigating issues manually.
