Case Study: Singapore statutory board for technology and telecommunications achieves developer-friendly, SDLC-integrated secure coding with Checkmarx

Finding a Developer Friendly Source Code Analysis Solution

A Singapore governmental infocomm agency (established in 1999) responsible for national IT and telecommunications development needed a source code analysis solution that fit an agile, fast-paced development environment. The team required something quick to set up, developer-friendly, capable of scanning multiple languages, and easy to integrate across the full SDLC and continuous integration pipelines.

They chose Checkmarx and integrated it into developers’ IDEs and their build servers. The solution delivered fast, accurate scans with clear remediation guidance, enforced security thresholds in releases, and ran without taxing developers’ workstations. As a result, issues are detected and fixed earlier, remediation effort is reduced, and developers gain practical security education—allowing them to focus on writing code rather than firefighting before releases.
