Welcome
Software Composition Analysis
Use Software Composition Analysis (SCA) to scan for security vulnerabilities in open source and third-party packages used by your code. SCA includes Intelligent Finding Analytics (IFA) and Intelligent Code Analytics (ICA).
Scanning libraries and third-party code for security vulnerabilities
To scan open source libraries and third-party code for security vulnerabilities, follow the steps in these topics.
Generating an IRX file using the command-line interface (CLI)
To initiate an analysis of your files, you must generate an IRX file to submit for scanning. To use the CLI to generate the IRX file, follow these instructions.
CLI command reference (Windows)
Windows-specific commands for performing static analysis using a small client command line interface (CLI) that you download and extract to your local disk.
Command help
Use the command help for retrieving a list of available commands or for retrieving information about an individual command.

Getting started
Welcome to the documentation for HCL AppScan 360°, where you can find information about how to install, maintain, and use this service.
Installation
Learn about AppScan 360° architecture and how to install the product.
Navigation
This section describes the items on the main AppScan 360° menu bar, with links to more detailed information.
Administration
Define users, applications, policies, and configure DevOps integrations.
Dynamic analysis
HCL AppScan 360° performs security scans for web-applications for production, staging and development environments.
Interactive monitoring
Using an agent installed on your application, AppScan 360° identifies security vulnerabilities in your application during runtime by monitoring all interactions, both legitimate and malicious. The process is "passive," in the sense that IAST does not send its own tests, and can therefore run indefinitely.
Software Composition Analysis
Use Software Composition Analysis (SCA) to scan for security vulnerabilities in open source and third-party packages used by your code. SCA includes Intelligent Finding Analytics (IFA) and Intelligent Code Analytics (ICA).
- About Software Composition Analysis
  Software Composition Analysis (SCA) identifies and examines open-source packages within your codebase to detect potential security vulnerabilities. SCA can analyze both individual source code files and package manager artifacts, such as configuration files, and lockfiles, to determine the open-source packages your project depends on.
- System requirements for SCA
  The types of files that can be scanned by AppScan 360° when you perform open source testing.
- Scanning libraries and third-party code for security vulnerabilities
  To scan open source libraries and third-party code for security vulnerabilities, follow the steps in these topics.
  - Configure an open source scan in AppScan 360°
  - Configuring a scan using AppScan Go!
    AppScan Go! steps you through configuring and running a static scan. Run the scan in the service or use a plugin to automate scanning.
  - Generating an IRX file using the command-line interface (CLI)
    To initiate an analysis of your files, you must generate an IRX file to submit for scanning. To use the CLI to generate the IRX file, follow these instructions.
    - Setting up the Static Analyzer Command Line Utility for use with SCA
      For Software Composition Analysis, download a small Command Line Utility. When you extract the utility to your local disk, you can use its command line interface (CLI) to perform security analysis.
    - Configuring IRX file generation with the CLI
      Use a configuration file for IRX file generation, wherein you can specify individual targets, or include or exclude targets. In addition, you can use the configuration file to specify additional information that would help to generate a complete IRX file.
    - CLI command reference (Windows)
      Windows-specific commands for performing static analysis using a small client command line interface (CLI) that you download and extract to your local disk.
      - Analysis commands
        Analysis commands are used for submitting scan requests for analysis - or for working with scan requests that are already submitted. Using the commands, you can also receive information about scans. This information can be useful for automation scripts.
      - Authentication commands
        Use authentication commands to log in to the AppScan 360° service.
      - Configuration commands
        Use configuration commands to prepare your files for scanning.
      - Global commands
        Use global commands to display CLI help and Static Analyzer Command Line Utility version information.
      - Command help
        Use the command help for retrieving a list of available commands or for retrieving information about an individual command.
      - Report and log commands
        Use report commands to generate scan logs and reports.
      - Results commands
        Use results commands to retrieve scan results from the analysis service.
    - CLI command reference (Linux and macOS)
      Linux-specific commands for performing static analysis using a small client command line interface (CLI) that you download and extract to your local disk.
  - Generating in IRX file using a plugin or IDE
  - Runtime Software Composition Analysis
    Identify and manage vulnerabilities in open source components and libraries used by an application at runtime.
- SCA scan results
  Features available in SCA scan results.
Static analysis
Use static analysis (SAST) to scan for security vulnerabilities in web and desktop applications. Static analysis includes Intelligent Finding Analytics (IFA) and Intelligent Code Analytics (ICA).
