Quick Setup (< 1 hour)

You can use Opengrep to scan source code repositories for security flaws, bugs, and compliance violations without sending data to third parties. As an open-source static code analysis engine, it evaluates rules across multiple programming languages directly from your terminal or continuous integration pipeline. It supports inter-procedural and cross-file analysis to catch complex vulnerabilities throughout entire projects. The engine outputs findings in standard JSON and SARIF formats, letting you plug scan results directly into existing development workflows and developer dashboards effortlessly.
