OpenText launches AI-powered Fortify Aviator to enhance code security and vulnerability remediation
Enterprise software provider OpenText Corp. today announced a new artificial intelligence-powered solution designed to speed the triage and remediation of vulnerabilities through the stages of code development.
Called OpenText Fortify Aviator, the code security solution saves developers significant time by delivering faster and easier auditing and remediation of static application security testing vulnerabilities. The idea is to empower teams to release secure software faster and with greater confidence.
Fortify Aviator takes training and validating raw static analysis results — one of the most time-intensive manual processes within application security — to the next level by more accurately identifying true vulnerabilities. The service identifies where a vulnerability is real or a false positive and provides full contextualized remediations, including blocks of code, that enable developers to fix the code issue quickly.
The service also takes on the issue wherein for developers to have less noise, such as false positives and noncritical issues, they must do lighter scans. OpenText argues that lighter scans increase the potential for vulnerabilities, including true positives, to be missed.
Fortify Aviator combines the latest in large language models with OpenText’s twenty years of SAST experience to deliver a unique combination that provides the best of both worlds, enabling deep, accurate scans and remediation significantly faster.
“Our latest breakthrough, Fortify Aviator, transforms how developers approach application security,” said Muhi Majzoub, chief product officer and executive vice president at OpenText. “Beyond merely identifying vulnerabilities, we provide contextualized fix suggestions. The result? A personal AI security champion available for every developer.”
Fortify Aviator is available to OpenText Fortify on Demand public cloud users, although Amazon Web Services Inc. availability limitations may apply in some regions.
OpenText was previously in the news earlier this month when it announced job cuts and a new reinvestment strategy. The company plans to cut 1,200 jobs as part of its OpenText 3.0 business optimization plan aimed at saving $200 million per year but plans to hire 800 new roles in sales, professional services and engineering to support the plan.
