A system and method for adapting a security tool for performing security analysis on a software application. In one embodiment, a method includes maintaining a registry of security tools; receiving code for a software application; and comparing component criteria for each security tool against each component of the software application, wherein the component criteria for each respective security tool indicate which components the respective security tool is designed to analyze for security vulnerabilities. The method also includes generating a tool-specific package for each component of the software application, wherein the tool-specific package comprises one or more security tools that are designed to analyze the respective component for security vulnerabilities.

Adapting a security tool for performing security analysis on a software application

Disclosed are systems, apparatus, methods, and computer readable media for analyzing computing site information. In one embodiment, an analysis tool for analyzing a first site record stored on a storage medium may be selected. The first site record comprising information may relate to a computing site. The computing site may comprise a unit of computing functionality accessible via a network. When it is determined that first confidentiality level for the computing site exceeds a trust level for the analysis tool, the first site record may be modified to create a second site record, the second site record having a second confidentiality level, the second confidentiality level not exceeding the trust level.

Security monitoring

A system and method for performing security analysis on a software application. In one embodiment, a method includes receiving application architecture information for a software application; and determining an application type based on the application architecture information. The method also includes performing one or more security tests on the software application based on the application type and the application architecture information; and approving the software application to be available in an online marketplace if the software application passes the one or more security tests.

Performing security analysis on a software application

Disclosed are systems, apparatus, methods, and computer readable media for determining a combined trust level for a website. In one embodiment, a user account associated with the creation or maintenance of the website may be analyzed. The analysis of the user account may be capable of identifying the presence or absence of a first risk factor affecting a likelihood that the user account is engaged in a malicious activity. A source code file capable of being used to create a message for sending to a remote computing device may be analyzed. The analysis of the source code file may be capable of identifying the presence or absence of a second risk factor affecting a likelihood that the source code file is facilitating a malicious activity. Based on the analysis, a combined trust level for the website may be determined.
