Shift risk left. Fix issues early. Deploy with confidence.
Focused on where risk starts
Security issues discovered late in the SDLC are expensive and slow teams down. The longer risk goes undetected, the harder it is to fix.
DevOps teams move fast. IBM Concert for Developers brings risk detection into the coding phase, helping teams identify and address issues before they impact downstream stages.
By analyzing source code in real time, Concert surfaces risks early and prioritizes what matters most, so developers can act quickly without context switching and reduce risk before production.
A developer-first perspective
Concert delivers a developer-focused product experience that helps teams shift left with a unified, prioritized view of code-level risk.
Surfaces and helps remediate security vulnerabilities directly in the IDE, allowing developers to address issues without leaving their workflow.
Concert presents the same underlying data through views tailored to specific roles.
Optimized for developers and DevOps engineers, focusing on code-level risks.
One score. Clear priorities.
Concert provides a code risk score that summarizes risk across the codebase and highlights where teams should focus next.
Risk is broken down across 3 key factors and each stage highlights success rates, key issues and top risks that roll up into a single, actionable view.
SAST exposures
Static Application Security Testing (SAST) detects vulnerabilities directly in your source code, including insecure patterns and exploitable logic flaws. Concert surfaces SAST findings in context, prioritizes them by impact and shows how they contribute to overall code risk. This allows you to address high-impact issues early in development.
Outdated code
When your code is out of date, it opens your organization to a litany of issues like breaches, attacks and eventual lawsuits that you won't be able to afford. Concert can help prevent these through identifying aging or unpatched elements in your codebase, highlighting upgrade paths and prioritizing updates based on risk impact. This helps you reduce exposure without disrupting delivery.
Dependency risks
Modern applications depend on open-source packages that can introduce inherited risk, including vulnerable or high-risk transitive dependencies. Concert analyzes your dependency tree to surface vulnerable packages, assess their impact, and prioritize remediation—giving teams clear visibility into third-party risk.
Concert goes beyond visibility by pairing insight with automated recommendations and suggesting prioritized actions to reduce risk and improve health. Actions are ranked by impact and confidence, helping teams focus on fixes that matter most and move faster with less guesswork.
