    In mid-2019, HCL Technologies acquired the AppScan® family of products from IBM, including AppScan® Enterprise, AppScan® Standard, AppScan® Source, and AppScan® on Cloud. All AppScan® products are now owned, developed, and promoted by HCL Software. All licenses, logos, naming conventions, and other intellectual and/or branding rights are owned by HCL. As such all AppScan® products have been rebranded to reflect this ownership and its new phase of development and growth.

  • Introducing HCL Licensing for HCL® AppScan® Source

    As part of the transition from IBM to HCL, HCL is introducing HCL-centric license packages for the AppScan® family of products. AppScan®, AppScan® Standard, and AppScan® Source use a local FlexLM license server, authenticating via a proxy server; AppScan® on Cloud uses a market-leasing customer identity access management (CAIM) system from Okta.

  • AppScan® Source now supports the Go programming language (Golang).
  • AppScan® Source now supports C++ scanning in Visual Studio 2015, 2017, and 2019.
  • AppScan® Source now supports Oracle 19c.
  • New data flow scanning functionality performs a more complete code analysis and more findings as a result.
  • For languages for which AppScan® Source has custom scanners, you may see a marked difference in findings when scanning with AppScan® Source v10. In instances when scanning has been converted to custom scanning, this may mean a reduction in findings. The rules for custom scanners are evolving and being added to on a regular basis, and are easy to enhance.
  • Enhanced integration with Intelligent Code Analytics (ICA) and Intelligent Findings Analytics (IFA).

    When ICA/IFA is enabled, you see and can access the Excluded Findings tab. For additional information, see Intelligent Findings Analytics (IFA) in the AppScan® Source documentation.

    By default, IFA is enabled for all scans. When enabled, it is applied to the current scan and future scans. It cannot be applied to assessments from previous scans.

  • Scanning .NET projects (ASP, WEB, Framework, Core) in AppScan® Source mirrors the processing inHCL AppScan on Cloud. .NET projects must be able to be compiled before they can be scanned and must have the correct build specification in project properties.
  • 15 GB is the minimum amount of space required to install AppScan® Source and run basic scans. However, required disk space varies depending on the application being scanned. We recommend a minimum of 8 GB of RAM and 15-20 GB of free disk space. You may also need to increase your Windows page file requirement (see Tips to improve PC performance in Windows 10 for more information).

  • For additional information on system requirements, and scanning and plug-in support, see System requirements and installation prerequisites or contact HCL Support.
