Modern SCA with Reachability, [Auto] Remediation and Malware Early Warning
Minimize risks and protect your applications with Xygeni Early Malware Detection.
Focus on exploitable vulnerabilities with reachability analysis and reduce false positives. Our real-time monitoring detects and mitigates threats in your dependencies before they impact your software.
Recent reports reveal that nearly three-quarters of codebases now contain high-risk open-source components.Vulnerabilities have soared from 48%to 74%in just one year.Even more concerning.91%of these components are at least 10 versions outdated,significantly heightening security risks.The rise of malicious open-source packages has been meteoric,with growth rates exceeding 300%year-over-year,resulting in over 245K malicious packages detected in 2023.It's time to take action!
Xygeni's Software Composition Analysis (SCA)goes beyond basic vulnerability detection by introducing reachability and exploitability analysis to help you focus on what truly matters.While other tools overwhelm teams with alerts. Xygeni prioritizes vulnerabilities based on actual impact, ensuring your team spends less time chasing false positives.
With auto-remediation,Xygeni reduces the time and effort required to secure your software.Automatically generate pull requests with fixes for known vulnerabilities,accelerating your remediation process and keeping your projects safe and compliant.
Our real-time monitoring spans multiple public registries, ensuring all dependencies are continuously scanned and verified for safety and integrity-giving you full visibility and control over your open-source software supply chain.
Advanced Detection of Risky Dependencies and Vulnerabilities
Xygeni’s Suspect Dependencies Scanner helps detect and mitigate supply chain attacks by identifying risks like typosquatting, dependency confusion, and suspicious installation scripts. By analyzing the dependency graph, Xygeni ensures your software remains protected from compromised components.
When a dependency is flagged as suspicious, Xygeni provides detailed remediation strategies, including version pinning, whitelisting, and blocking risky scripts, preventing threats from infiltrating your projects.
Overview of Supported Risky Dependency Detectors
Xygeni’s scanners offer comprehensive detection across multiple ecosystems, allowing security teams to identify and respond to evolving threats with precision.
Types of Suspect Dependency Detector
• Anomalous Dependencies: Detects unusual dependencies that may indicate security risks.
• Dependency Confusion: Identifies internal package names that could be mistaken for public repository versions.
• Known Vulnerabilities: Flags dependencies with documented security flaws. Xygeni integrates databases such as NVD, OSV, Github advisory and others.
• Malware: Detects dependencies containing known malware threats.
• Suspicious Scripts: Identifies scripts that may execute unauthorized or harmful actions.
• Typosquatting: Catches malicious packages with deceptively similar names.
• Unscoped Internal Components: Flags unscoped NPM components at risk of public exposure.

Malware Early Detection, Blocking, and Notification
As soon as new packages are published, Xygeni conducts a real-time scan to detect and block malware based on code behavior analysis, alleviating the need for extensive and urgent post-build remediation. Our systematic process sounds like this:
• Public Registries Monitored:The service continuously scans multiple public registries like NPM,Maven,PyPl. etc.
• Immediate Notification to Affected Users:As soon as a potential threat is detected,the system immediately notifies the affected users,enabling rapid response to mitigate risks. Notifications can be raised through standard Xygeni mechanisms such as email. messaging platforms,and webhooks.
2. Quarantine:
• Automatic Blocking of Zero-Day Malware: Upon detection, suspicious packages are automatically quarantined. The customer can use this information to implement guardrails in their CI/CD to prevent the packages from entering the development environment or the broader software supply chain.
3. Review and Confirmation:
• Code Review by Security Researchers: A security research team reviews the quarantined package to verify the threat.
• Confirmation by Public Registry: If confirmed by our internal team, we communicate it to the public registry, which should confirm the finding and validate the threat level and the nature of the malware or vulnerability.
4. Disposal and Public Disclosure:
• Disposal: Once a threat is confirmed, the appropriate measures are taken to dispose of the threat safely, ensuring it does not re-enter the ecosystem.
• Public Disclosure: The usual details about the malware and its disposal are publicly disclosed through the product, Xygeni blog, or the package registry to inform the wider community and prevent further spread.
Prioritize What Truly Matters with Reachability Analysis
Most security tools generate overwhelming alerts without assessing whether vulnerabilities are actively exploitable. Xygeni's Reachability Analysis changes that by identifying whether a vulnerability is actually reachable in your application, ensuring teams focus only on real threats.
By analyzing code execution paths and dependency usage. Xygeni cuts false positives by up to 70%.ensuring remediation efforts are directed at issues that genuinely pose a risk.
Combined with EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System), Xygeni also prioritizes vulnerabilities based on likelihood of exploitation, allowing security teams to allocate resources efficiently.
With Xygeni’s Reachability Analysis, you gain:
• Call Graph Tracing: Accurately maps how vulnerabilities propagate through dependencies.
• EPSS-Based Prioritization: Scores vulnerabilities based on real-world exploitability likelihood.
• Dependency-Level Reachability: Distinguishes between used and unused components to reduce unnecessary fixes.
• Continuous Monitoring & CI/CD Integration: Ensures real-time evaluation of vulnerabilities as your code evolves.
Remediation Risk: Fix Smarter, Not Riskier
Not every upgrade is the right upgrade. Xygeni-SAST goes beyond detection by showing the risks behind each fix. For every vulnerable dependency, you can compare patch options and see:
• Fixed risks: vulnerabilities that disappear with the update.
• New risks: issues that the upgrade could introduce.
• Breaking changes: version jumps that may disrupt your code.
With this insight, your team chooses the safest patch path, eliminating vulnerabilities without adding noise or new problems.
Accelerate Security with Auto-Remediation
Fixing vulnerabilities manually is time-consuming and slows down development. Xygeni’s Auto-Remediation transforms the process by automatically generating fixes for detected vulnerabilities, allowing teams to secure applications without disrupting workflows.
Our AutoFix in Bulk feature goes even further—enabling teams to apply multiple fixes at once for vulnerabilities across different dependencies, reducing remediation time and effort.
How It Works:
1.Automated Fix Suggestions: Xygeni analyzes vulnerabilities and provides suggested fixes directly
in your workflow.
2. Bulk AutoFix: Apply multiple remediations in one action, significantly cutting down security debt.
3. Seamless CI/CD Integration: Automate fixes without slowing down development, ensuring security is embedded into your pipelines.
4. Pull Request Generation : Automatically creates PRs with patched versions for rapid implementation.
With Xygeni’s Auto-Remediation, organizations can eliminate security risks faster, free up developer resources,
and keep applications secure without manual effort.
