🔧Infrastructure as Code

Excellent coverage for infrastructure and containerization:

  • •Terraform - Misconfiguration detection via Checkov
  • •Kubernetes - YAML security scanning
  • •Docker - Dockerfile best practices via Hadolint

⚠️What ShieldMyApp is NOT

  • •Not a full compliance scanner (SOC 2, PCI-DSS, etc.)
  • •Not a replacement for enterprise SAST suites (Veracode, Checkmarx)
  • •Not designed for legacy monoliths or mainframe applications
  • •Not a pentesting or runtime monitoring solution

We're a decision engine for fast-moving teams who need clear deploy/don't-deploy verdicts, not exhaustive security audits.

Our Philosophy

ShieldMyApp is built for modern web applications and AI-generated code. We optimize for the languages and frameworks that represent 90% of production code written today.

Rather than claiming "complete coverage" for every language, we're honest about our strengths. This focus allows us to deliver faster scans, higher accuracy, and clearer verdicts for our target use cases.
