Development Process

Shift Left / DevSecOps

Finding vulnerabilities in production is expensive. Shift left turns that around: in a DevSecOps approach, security testing, code analysis and compliance checks run before a component ever reaches your product. The result: less rework, faster releases, secure software from day one.

Shift Left / DevSecOps

At a Glance

CI/CD Integration

ts-scan and DeepScan run as a pipeline step in GitHub Actions, GitLab CI or Jenkins. Results flow into the platform automatically.

Quality Gates

Define thresholds for vulnerabilities, license risk and policy violations. Builds are blocked automatically when limits are exceeded.

Instant Feedback

Developers see findings directly in the pull request - not weeks later in an audit report.

License Compliance

LegalCheck checks every build to confirm new dependencies are compatible with your license policies.

Code Analysis

DeepScan scans source code for malware, unsafe crypto algorithms and undeclared licenses - before the merge.

Trend Monitoring

Track security and compliance quality across sprints. Spot regressions early.

The Challenge

Classic security reviews happen at the end of the development cycle - when changes are expensive and schedules are tight. If a critical vulnerability or a license conflict only surfaces during the audit, the release slips by weeks.

How Shift Left Works with TrustSource

TrustSource integrates seamlessly into your existing CI/CD pipeline. On every build, ts-scan analyzes the dependencies and produces an SBOM. DeepScan checks the source code for hidden risks. LegalCheck assesses the license situation in the context of your project.

Findings show up directly in the pull request. Quality gates make sure that only software meeting your security and compliance requirements reaches production.

A Typical Pipeline

1. Build
ts-scan analyzes lockfiles and produces an SBOM covering all direct and transitive dependencies.
2. Scan
DeepScan checks the source code for licenses, malware, crypto algorithms and snippets.
3. Check
LegalCheck assesses license compliance. VulnerabilityLake checks against current CVE data.
4. Gate
The platform decides based on your policies: merge allowed, review required, or build blocked.
