What's New 🚀🚀


2024-03-29

Supply Chain Inventory

  • BoostSecurity now natively supports the generation of a comprehensive and searchable list of the components used to build your software. With this feature, you can easily identify third-party components, such as GitHub actions and CircleCI orbs, which can potentially pose a security risk to your build pipeline. This feature provides end-to-end visibility of your entire supply chain, allowing you to quickly and effectively respond to new risks as they are detected.

User Management Improvements

  • Enhancements to user creation and management to allow you to grant administrator access to new users from the BoostSecurity UI as well as review all user account access.

2024-03-07

Scanner Configurations

  • Simplify your scanner configuration by creating global and easy-to-use rule sets for your configurable scanners. You streamline the provisioning process and better enable central control of how your scanners run within Boost.

Improved CI/CD Scanner Provisioning

  • All SCMs can now provision the CI/CD scanner as defualt scanner protection for all new Organizations and Repositories on the scanner coverage page, rather than on the integrations view as before.

Scanner Coverage

  • At-a-glance scanner coverage! Gain insight into where your portfolio has coverage, from static analysis to secrets detection to third-party dependencies and much more!
  • Immediately highlight coverage gaps in your program and fill them with a 1-click deployment of built-in scanning and detection technologies to gain up-to-the-minute insights into all areas of your application risk.
  • Mass-provision catered scanning for your repositories, with built-in filters to find all repositories of a specific language or framework, allows you to quickly assign the best scanning technology for that language in one action!

2024-02-16

Policy Improvements

  • Policy changes now can be processed instantly allowing users to globally adjust the Findings and Violations reported within their boostsecurity.io instance without requiring a new set of scans to update your data.

  • Open Source Security Foundation (OSSF) scoring can now be a part of your policy definition, enabling you to get violation alerts when your 3rd party dependencies represent a greater risk to your organization.

  • License policies and management capabilities have been added to enable at-a-glance filtering for prohibited licenses, license details within finding and violation information, and most importantly, the ability to define policy restrictions around certain licenses so you can always be automatically notified if a component has been added that carries a forbidden policy.

Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP) Becomes Turn-key

  • Massive ZTP usability updates starting with GitHub and GitLab, we’ve now taken the guesswork and frustration out of provisioning new scanning tools into your code bases. Significant improvements to user guidance in our ZTP wizard to provide specific instruction, statusing, and automation around the provisioning process from start to finish.

  • ZTP scan execution throttling is now supported, giving you the control and flexibility to run scans less frequently based on your own criteria to help control costs within your cloud CI environment.

Findings Groupings
