System requirements for SCA

The types of files that can be scanned by AppScan 360° when you perform open source testing.

Language support

AppScan 360° strives to support as many open source packages as possible; we update CVE data daily. However, license information may not always be available for less common packages.

Note: For some package managers, you must be able to build the project before testing it with AppScan 360°. Some dependencies are only resolved when the project is built.
Table 1.

  • The project is already built and all build outputs include projects.assets.json or packages.lock.json.

    OR
