Description

Ideally, when it comes to building secure applications, it’s best to check the code as it moves through the development process, so that vulnerabilities can be found before it gets into production. That’s exactly the kind of solution that Semgrep, formerly r2c, a San Francisco startup, has been building over the last five years.
