Smart Code Scanning in Digital Transformation World

Kamalakar Reddy Ponaka

Abstract: As organizations undergo digital transformation, they embrace software-driven innovation, adopt cloud architectures, and integrate continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) practices. This shift demands robust security measures and optimized development workflows. Smart code scanning plays a pivotal role by providing automated, real-time analysis to ensure that security vulnerabilities, compliance issues, and code quality concerns are addressed early in the software development lifecycle. This white paper explores the importance, benefits, and implementation strategies of smart code scanning in the context of digital transformation.
