When looking for the scanner to build our secure development process on, we evaluated the capabilities of global leading vendors. We were surprised with the very convenient licensing model along with the impressive capabilities of the product. DerScanner is an optimal solution to our main challenge of checking the health of our product's code.

Deployment models, binary requirements and language lists for both platforms, checked against Veracode documentation.

Which platform suits which job: DerScanner or Veracode?

DerScanner

SAST, DAST, SCA, MAST

Where DerScanner and Veracode differ

PUBLIC DOCS

Three deployment models against SaaS only

DerScanner runs in the cloud, on internal servers or in a network with no internet link. Veracode states that it offers no on-premises version.

Release builds accepted as shipped

Veracode requires debug symbols for Windows C/C++ binaries and scans Apple apps only from debug builds.

DerScanner vs Veracode

CAPABILITY

Correct a WAR file with no source on hand

DerCodeFix decompiles the package, locates the flaw and drafts a secure change. A new draft is available whenever the first one does not fit.

CAPABILITY

Scan ABAP, COBOL and Rust in one tool

43 languages span SAP systems, mainframes, smart contracts and modern web stacks.

CAPABILITY

Check vendor binaries before deployment

Third-party executables and mobile packages pass through static analysis with no source or symbols supplied.

CAPABILITY

Find undocumented features in obfuscated apps

DerScanner reports hidden functionality and analyzes obfuscated Android builds, which Veracode documentation excludes from scanning.

CAPABILITY

Score each dependency for supply chain risk

Each component receives scores for credibility, authorship, popularity and maintainer response speed.

Credibility76%
Authorship52%
Popularity88%

First version number is suspiciously high
CAPABILITY

Review a written rationale for each finding

DerTriage classifies findings and records the reasoning next to the verdict. It operates on the DerScanner server with no internet access.

Path traversal in ReportController.cs:88

TRUE POSITIVE

The file name from the request is joined to the reports folder without normalization.

Where do DerScanner and Veracode differ, capability by capability?

CapabilityDerScannerVeracode
AI verification of findingsYesNo
AI-generated code fixesYesYes
AI agents run without internet accessYesNo

The Veracode column follows Veracode public documentation, reviewed September 2026.

Bring Veracode projects on-premises without a scanning gap

Veracode scans continue while each application is set up in DerScanner. Release checks run the whole time.

How do buyers decide between DerScanner and Veracode?

Scan a current Veracode application with DerScanner

A proof of concept can run on internal servers, so the code under test stays in the network.
