Case Study: Vanta achieves higher-confidence security findings with Semgrep

How Vanta finds high-confidence findings with Semgrep

The security team at Vanta struggled with software security tools that produced excessive false positives and were not easily customizable, making it difficult to prioritize real threats. They needed a new solution to integrate into their developer workflow and cut through the noise to find high-confidence security issues, leading them to the Semgrep platform.

Semgrep provided Vanta with its Supply Chain product, whose reachability analysis filtered out hundreds of unreachable vulnerabilities to highlight only the exploitable ones. This allowed Vanta to find and fix two critical, reachable vulnerabilities they would have otherwise missed. The ease of customizing Semgrep rules and the tool's tight integration into developer workflows enabled Vanta to shift left and surface only high-confidence findings to its engineers.
