Veracode Save Time

Has Veracode helped your developers save time? If yes, by how much and why? Please explain.

Rafael Mesquita - PeerSpot reviewer
Full Stack Software Developer at DreamDev
Veracode saves time in the development process because we can anticipate security issues in an application. On the other hand, from a software development perspective, it could be a technical increase in depth. After we develop a feature in the application and run Veracode, we might find some security issues we need to fix.

Continuous integration linking definitely saves a lot of time because it takes away the step where a developer needs to manually upload the code every time to do a scan. It can run in the background, and having the Visual Studio plugin includes it directly in the development environment. If developers do get assigned a bug that they need to fix, they can pull it right up in their development environment and not have to log in to the portal. It will all be right there. I'm primarily the one who has been involved in DevSecOps, and Veracode has definitely reduced my time. If we had gone with a conglomeration of open-source tools, it would've taken me a ton more time. Whereas with Veracode, all the documentation is out there, and I'm able to integrate everything that I need from a usability standpoint. I don't have to learn a new tool every time I need to integrate a new security scanning option. It has helped me tremendously and has saved me a lot of time.

It also saved our developers' time by 50% to 60%. Before going live, we always integrate Veracode with our application's bill pipeline. Instead of resolving issues once it is live, we can fix them beforehand.

JA
Technical Architect at Orange España
Our team has been minimized in terms of headcount and the overall time it takes because it has automated all the static analysis. Earlier, we had hired two or three members just to do analysis of the source code. Veracode has saved us on those costs. We have seen a positive return on investment with organizational savings of 15 to 20 percent.

It has also helped us to save time. The example, and where I see the most benefits of that, is in the Secure Labs, where I have the developers training and constantly improving their security, and remembering their security techniques. That way, they are more proactive and make sure things are correct. They're faster because they're doing it in the first place.

There is also a feature called Veracode Pipeline Scan which provides instantaneous feedback... It enables our developers to fix things in parallel, and that has saved time, about 20 to 25 percent, and resulted in better coding.

Veracode may not seem to immediately save our developers time, and it may even seem tedious at times. Ultimately, however, it can be extremely useful in identifying issues and vulnerabilities before they become larger problems, making it a valuable resource.

Veracode helps our developers save time; it's a straightforward product that shows us the vulnerabilities and allows us to relay them back to the developers. This is faster and more efficient than staff going through the code manually. The solution is like having a proofreading app for our code rather than using a proofreader.

Veracode helped our developers save time; two or three development team members were previously dedicated to code security. By automating this task using the solution, those developers can reallocate their time to core software development, which is an excellent result. The time saved is in the region of 25%.

Veracode has helped our developers save time by providing a solution that eliminates the need to manually check for dependencies or search the internet for information on which dependencies have issues. Instead, Veracode provides a detailed report that identifies the issues and recommends the appropriate version to use. Using Veracode ensures the quality of our code and also saves time for our developers. In my career of five years, Veracode has helped me resolve code issues eight times.

Veracode helped our developers save time by providing a solution that can be integrated with other IDEs, such as Visual Studio Code. This allows developers to use a tool that they are familiar with and that is readily available. This, in turn, helps them to develop faster because the interactivity tools support every programming language. This means that developers do not have to create a lot of code before they can start using Veracode. Instead, they can focus on adding more logic and functionality to their code. Veracode can then help them to test and secure their code more quickly. Overall, Veracode has helped our developers save an average of 30 percent of the time they would have otherwise spent on security testing.

Veracode doesn't really help developers save time because we're already a mature organization. Their support team has helped us optimize our scan configuration significantly. Regarding the regular developers' goals, we have existing documentation and hold meetings with them. They do support consultations when developers have an issue.

It helps them with future references because, if they write code one time with errors that Veracode finds, the next time they use that as a reference and they don't repeat the mistake. In that way, in the continuous development process, a lot of time is saved. It saves us about 20 percent of our time.

Veracode assists developers in saving approximately 20 percent of their time, primarily in the static part, as they no longer need to review all the code. Regarding the dynamic part, Veracode scans all the URLs, eliminating the necessity for developers to use additional tools. For third-party dependencies, developers depend on the reports and the Greenlight ID plug-in to streamline their workflow and save time.

Veracode has been helpful in reducing our developers' time by around fifty percent. For an application to meet internet safety standards, the code must achieve the VL4 level in Veracode. According to Veracode reports, our developers can focus more on resolving the issues rather than trying to identify them.

Robert Hood - PeerSpot reviewer
Information Security Architect at a tech vendor with 5,001-10,000 employees
Veracode helps our developers save time. While I cannot provide a precise estimate of the actual time saved, I can explain that the more we shift the SAST to the left, meaning running it as soon as the developers enter their code, the more time we can save. This is because when developers have the code fresh in their minds, they have a better understanding of what they wrote and how to fix any vulnerabilities based on the provided descriptions. On the contrary, if we shift the SAST further to the right when the code is already completed and possibly being reviewed by a different developer, it will take more time for them to understand the original code and the vulnerability's context. Thus, the original developer could have fixed the vulnerability in a shorter period of time. Additionally, considering the learning curve for new developers down the line, it becomes even more crucial to have the original developer fix the vulnerability promptly. If we only run DAST without SAST, we might end up with a long list of ten thousand potential vulnerabilities, which would require weeks of work just to address them all sequentially from the start.

Veracode helps our developers save time. We review the recommendations provided by the solution, adhere to our best practices, and then proceed to implement these suggestions. In cases where we might have had three lines of code, the solution is capable of reducing that to one or two lines. I would estimate that Veracode has decreased our developer time by 40 percent.

Arnab Paul - PeerSpot reviewer
Cyber Security Consultant at a consultancy with 10,001+ employees
Before using Veracode, we used to perform many tasks manually. We had a checklist for the SAST. We would go through each line of code, attempting to determine its compliance and level of security. Even with the DAST, we used to carry out this process manually. Completing the DAST scan took a considerable amount of time. For each module, we had to dedicate at least two to three days. However, since adopting Veracode, we can now not only perform this process for each module, but we can also initiate scans for all the modules simultaneously. As a result, we can obtain the results within a maximum of three to four hours. Time-saving for fixing flaws is one of the significant benefits that Veracode has provided us, helping reduce the time by almost 60 percent.

Sairam Bathini - PeerSpot reviewer
DevSecOps Engineer at Tata Consultancy
Firstly, the developer posts the code into Git or Bitbucket, and the automatic build will be run from there. Since Veracode is already indicated while learning the build, we can get the report and make the changes immediately. The developer can stick to only one application at a time. If there are any flaws in the outcome, the developer can work immediately on them and resolve them. Veracode has helped save around 30% of our developers' time. Scanning while developing the tool is good instead of scanning after the application is built. We used to do these microservices where we used to scan each and every component. Instead of running this scan on the entire application, only a few components or microservices are scanned.

TR
Associate Software Engineer at a healthcare company with 201-500 employees
Veracode has significantly reduced our build time. We automate our builds every day, running them between 3:00 AM and 5:00 AM. Once the build is complete, Veracode scans the entire build and provides a report by 6:00 or 7:00 AM. This allows us to review any new issues in the build by the time we start work at 9:00 AM, enabling us to address them quickly. Previously, this process took several days, but with Veracode, it now takes just a few hours. We now continuously review and fix issues every day, leading to significant time savings compared to our previous weekly review process.
