Introducing Apex Flash-1

FedRAMP

Continuous testing for FedRAMP's new requirements

Find exploitable vulnerabilities, understand their impact, and check that proposed fixes address them. Cantina brings investigation, pentesting, and fix review into your team's existing workflow.

Show how you're reducing risk

FedRAMP's VDR and VER rules become mandatory on December 7, 2026. Providers need to evaluate exposure, respond to vulnerabilities, and report how risk changes. Read the notice (opens in a new tab) . Running more scans is only useful if your team can investigate the findings and act on them. Cantina helps you carry that work through to fix review, with evidence your engineers and security team can use.

From an alert to a fix your team can check

  1. 01

    Investigate the exposure

    Is the affected code running? Can an attacker reach it? Do existing controls stop the attack? Clarion investigates alerts using connected repositories, infrastructure, and operational data to help your team decide what needs attention.

  2. 02

    Validate the vulnerability

    Apex investigates attack paths and reproduces vulnerabilities where possible. Give engineers findings backed by evidence, with a clear account of what was tested and what remains uncertain.

  3. 03

    Check the proposed fix

    Apex Fix Review checks code changes against the original vulnerability and looks for incomplete patches, bypasses, and new security issues. Schedule recurring scans and reviews to keep testing as your code changes.

Security patches need testing too

62 of 193 fix pull requests had security issues.

In a three-month study of customer fix pull requests receiving a final verdict, Apex found changes that left the original vulnerability reachable or introduced another security problem.

Catch those problems during review. Then confirm the reviewed change is deployed and validate its behavior in your live service.

97

issue-category entries across 62 fix pull requests

Original bug still reachable: 63 issue entries affecting 62 findings Original bug still reachable 63 New problem the patch introduced: 34 issue entries affecting 30 findings New problem the patch introduced 34
Of 193 client fix pull requests with a final verdict, 62 surfaced the 97 issues shown. Categories can overlap within a finding; the bars count distinct category entries.
