New features and enhancements

Container results in Scan Report summary

Note

This feature is currently available only in Multi-Tenant environments and is not yet supported for Single-Tenant customers.

The Scan Report summary displayed in the main header has been enhanced to include Container results, providing a more comprehensive overview of your security posture.

The Scan Results Overview section has been expanded to feature specific KPIs related to Containers, offering deeper insights and more detailed visibility into your container security status.

Download source code (ZIP file)

This version introduces the capability to download the ZIP file submitted for scanning. This functionality enables quick rescans for minor changes, saves time, and enhances productivity.

TAR file upload support

To enhance flexibility and accommodate a wider range of formats, Checkmarx One now supports .tar file upload.

Access to scans from Projects page

A new Query Editor button has been added to the Projects page for quicker access to your scans. Clicking on the button opens a dropdown list with available SAST or IaC scans for that project. The Query Editor button appears when there are SAST or IaC scans for that project.

UI enhancements

This version introduces the following UI updates:

  • On the Project page, on a project row, right-click Results, Overview, or Project Settings (ellipsis) and select Open link in new tab, to open the respective window in a new tab.

  • On the Overview page, in the Branch drop-down, right-click a branch and select Open link in new tab, to open it in a new tab.

  • On the Scan History page, after selecting a scan, right-click Results or Query Editor (Audit Scan) and select Open link in new tab, to open the respective window in a new tab.

Redesign of SAST Results Viewer

Note

This feature is currently available only in Multi-Tenant environments and is not yet supported for Single-Tenant customers.

The SAST Results Viewer page has been redesigned to be more intuitive and accessible.

A ribbon at the top of the page details the scanner type, project branch, scan date, and scan history. Details, like a result’s severity or source code file, are organized in a table, while quick links and buttons like Overview, Download Logs, Audit Scan, and Go To Project appear by hovering over a project row, making navigation between features quicker.

Retrieve list of SAST supported compliances via API

For the GET /queries/categories-types API, which fetches a list of supported compliances for SAST, we added a filter to retrieve only the “standard” compliances.

The “standard” compliances are the subset that Checkmarx One shows by default on the project page.

SCA

Delta Scan feature

Note

This feature is currently available only in Multi-Tenant environments and is not yet supported for Single-Tenant customers.

We have dramatically cut the time of SCA scans by introducing the new Delta scan feature. When rescanning an existing project, if the manifest files haven’t been changed since the last scan, then we skip the dependency resolution process. This can cut scan times by up to 95% without detracting from the accuracy of the scan.

Currently, this only applies to scans run in the cloud, not to scans run using SCA Resolver.
