Case Study: Software GmbH reduces AppSec costs and scales security with Checkmarx One

Software GmbH Modernizes AppSec with Cloud-Native Checkmarx One

Software GmbH, a long‑standing German enterprise software provider known for ARIS and Adabas & Natural, faced growing AppSec demands as development moved faster and cloud‑first practices expanded. Although it had used on‑premise SAST and SCA tools since 2014, the company struggled with high maintenance costs, limited scalability, and a need to embed security into CI/CD pipelines while maintaining visibility across custom and open‑source components.

In 2025 Software GmbH migrated to Checkmarx One, a cloud‑native SAST and SCA platform that eliminated infrastructure upkeep, integrated scans into pull requests and build pipelines, and provided context‑rich developer guidance plus automatic open‑source visibility. The move cut maintenance and infrastructure costs, sped up secure releases, enabled rapid, organization‑wide onboarding, and strengthened compliance and customer trust.
