End-to-end quality gates

Enforce quality and security policy consistently across IDE, PR, and CI/CD.

Developer-led security

Shift security into coding and review so issues are fixed before merge.

Trusted AI code assurance

Validate AI-generated and human code uniformly for maintainability and security.

Consistent multi-surface experience

Server, Cloud, and IDE share rules and gates for consistent results.

Recommended Rollout

1

Onboard analysis: connect projects to SonarQube Server/Cloud scanning.

2

Set quality gates: configure coverage, code smell, and security thresholds.

3

Shift to the IDE: use SonarQube for IDE for in-editor feedback.

4

Enable security governance: turn on vulnerability detection and OSS/license governance.

5

Embed in CI/CD: enforce gates in pipelines to block non-compliant merges.

CAPABILITIES

Core Capabilities

Static Code Analysis

Continuously inspect codebases to surface bugs, code smells and quality issues.

Security Vulnerability Detection

Built-in SAST capabilities identify exploitable vulnerabilities and hotspots.

Open Source Governance

Detect known vulnerabilities and license risks in third-party dependencies via SCA.

Quality Gates

Define thresholds on new code and block merges or releases that fail to meet them.

AI Code Verification

Apply the same quality and security bar to code produced by LLMs and coding agents.

CI/CD Integration

Integrate with mainstream Git platforms and pipelines to embed analysis into daily workflows.
