Synopsys announced the launch of a new AI-powered application security assistant that provides AI-augmented vulnerability summaries and code fixes.
The AI assistant called Polaris Assist and offered as part of the Synopsys Polaris Software Integrity Platform, It combines large language model technology with Synopsys’ application security knowledge and intelligence. It provides security and development teams with easily understood summaries of detected vulnerabilities, AI-generated code fix recommendations, and other insights to help build secure software faster.
The new service provides two new AI-enabled capabilities. The first, Polaris AI Issue Summaries, is designed to make it easier for developers to interpret and act on static analysis results, with AI used to generate concise and actional summaries of coding weaknesses and vulnerabilities. The summaries also include the potential risks of each vulnerability and contextual guidance on how to remediate the code at hand.
The second capability, Polaris AI Fix Suggestions, helps developers reduce the time required to remediate security vulnerabilities by recommending AI-generated code fixes that can be easily reviewed, applied and adapted directly into their code.
The goal of Polaris Assist is to automate repetitive or time-consuming AppSec activities so our customers can spend less time dealing with security issues and more time innovating.
The AI powered solution keen in addressing real pain points many organizations are feeling today, but they also validate the immense opportunity generative AI presents for the field of application security moving forward.
