Sonarqube

SonarQube is a self-managed, automatic code review tool that systematically helps in delivering clean code.

Usage of Sonarqube in SSD

  • SSD mandates security scans on images using Sonarqube. It connects with Sonarqube to see if the required version of the image has been scanned by and if not done, SSD generates a security issue.

  • Once the Sonarqube scan is done, SSD pulls container security scan results from and uses to calculate the overall image and application risk scoring.

  • The scanned results are available in the Vulnerability Management page, Source section of the DBOM page, and the View Open Security Issues page.

  • Users can also create custom policies based on the SAST scan results, for example, users can create a policy that blocks images built from a repository where the Sonarqube quality gate check failed at the time of build.
