SAST Configuration

About

This skill provides expert guidance for implementing comprehensive security scanning using industry-standard tools like Semgrep, SonarQube, and CodeQL. It enables developers to integrate automated security checks directly into CI/CD pipelines, create custom security rules tailored to specific codebases, and establish robust quality gates to prevent vulnerabilities from reaching production. By optimizing scan performance and tuning rules to reduce false positives, it helps teams maintain a high security posture while minimizing development friction, making it an essential tool for any organization adopting DevSecOps practices.
