"Full repository code review is a new capability in AWS Security Agent that performs deep, context-aware security analysis of an entire codebase. It's now available in preview at no additional charge for existing AWS Security Agent customers. Unlike traditional static analysis tools that match code against known vulnerability patterns, full repository code review reasons about an application's architecture, trust boundaries, and data flows to surface systemic vulnerabilities that pattern-matching tools miss."
"Most SAST tools will flag a SQL injection or an exposed credential if it fits a recognized pattern. What they won't do is trace how data moves across services, how trust boundaries are defined, or how one seemingly minor flaw could chain into a larger exploit. This new feature is designed to catch exactly that."
"When vulnerabilities are found, the scanner produces developer-ready findings with transparent evidence and concrete remediation - specific fixes tied to the exact file and line, so teams can identify and address security issues faster."
"The agent is designed to continuously validate application security from design to deployment, covering automated application security reviews and on-demand penetration testing."
Full repository code review in AWS Security Agent performs deep, context-aware security analysis across an entire codebase. It goes beyond pattern-matching static analysis by reasoning about application architecture, trust boundaries, and data flows. This approach helps surface systemic vulnerabilities that pattern-based tools often miss, including issues that require tracing how data moves across services and how small flaws can chain into larger exploits. When vulnerabilities are found, the scanner generates developer-ready findings with transparent evidence and concrete remediation. Remediation is tied to the exact file and line, enabling faster identification and resolution. The capability is available in preview at no additional charge for existing AWS Security Agent customers.
