Fortify on Demand v17.1 Feature Summary New Functionalities Flexible Policy Management Security leads now have additional control and flexibility in defining their security (pass/ fail) policies and can configure how policies are applied to applications in a tenant with the following settings: Set the scope that is used to determine which security policy is applied to each application based on business criticality, application type, or a specific application attribute Assign a policy to each scope value Fortify on Demand (17.1) Page 3 of 11

4 Security Leads can also create and manage multiple custom security policies. In addition to the star rating and grace remediation period, a custom policy can now specify: Which vulnerabilities that are included when determining the pass/ fail status of an application based on industry-standard classifications such as PCI, OWASP, DISA STIG, FISMA, or CWE Whether Application Monitoring is required for releases in production Which assessment types are available to applications that have the policy applied For more information, see the Policy Management section in the Micro Focus Fortify on Demand User Guide. Enhanced Issue Flow Diagram The issue flow diagram has enhanced display and navigational functionalities for better usability, particularly around highlighting shared data flows to quickly identify optimal remediation strategies to fix multiple static issues at once. When a node is selected, the number of highlighted issues is displayed. Clicking the icon of the first node in a trace drills into issue details. Additional navigational buttons are available: Toggle Heat Map - enables / disables highlighting of data flows. Fortify on Demand (17.1) Page 4 of 11

5 Note: The heat map highlights nodes in different colors based on the number of issues sharing it: red (>50%), orange (>30%) and yellow (>10%). Prune -(available when a node is selected) narrows the diagram to the combined data flow of the selected issues. Reset removes pruning and resets the diagram to the default view of the selected issue category. Zoom To Fit - resizes the entire diagram to fit in the display without resetting or pruning. Full Screen - expands the diagram in full screen mode. Redesigned Application and Release Overview Pages The Application Overview and Release Overview pages have been redesigned to share a consistent look that offers a prominent view of critical information. Application Overview: The Application Releases page is renamed to the Overview page. The Overview page displays the production risk and policy compliance that is shown on Your Applications page s Managed grid as well as the Application Monitoring and App Defender statuses. Fortify on Demand (17.1) Page 5 of 11

6 Release Overview: The Release Overview page now displays static, dynamic or mobile, and network scan status. The Send to WAF/IPS button has been moved to the Application and Release Scans pages. Note: The WAF beta feature must be enabled for the tenant. The Enable Audit button has been removed and is only available on the Issues page. Fortify on Demand (17.1) Page 6 of 11

7 Source Control Integration Fortify on Demand offers source control integration for the following source control platforms: GitHub and Bitbucket. This enables Fortify on Demand to pull source code from repositories on those platforms for static assessments. The following languages are supported: Java, Javascript,.NET, PHP, and Python. The requirements for preparing your code for upload to Fortify on Demand remain the same as described in the Micro Focus Fortify on Demand User Guide. Source control integration is configured at the application level. Once it is configured, users can select a branch or release to upload when starting a static assessment. The GitHub integration uses the GitHub marketplace application, which is unique to each datacenter. Fortify on Demand (17.1) Page 7 of 11

8 The Bitbucket integration uses the OAuth consumer functionality in Bitbucket. Additional updates include: The new Static Scan Setup page replaces the Static Scan wizard; static scan settings on this page are carried over to the next static scan. The Build Server Integration URL is now automatically generated once the assessment type, technology stack, and language level (if applicable) have been selected on the Static Scan Setup page. For more information, see the Source Control Integration section in the Micro Focus Fortify on Demand User Guide. Support for DISA STIG 4.1 and OWASP Mobile Top 10 Classifications Fortify on Demand now supports the DISA STIG 4.1 and OWASP Mobile Top 10 classifications.

9 New.NET front end Eliminates need for the pre-compiled step Enables and expands new robust functionalities Objective-C for Xcode 8.0, 8.1 support Support for additional ABAP keywords and statements Improved TSQL support Quality improvements for the Java translator, Javascript translator, and Dataflow Analyzer User Experience Improvements Show or Hide Fixed and Suppressed Issues Separately Users can now show or hide fixed (Fixed / Fixed Validated) and suppressed (False Positive Confirmed, Suppressed) issues separately on the Application Monitoring, Release Overview, and Release Issues pages. Improved Global Search The Fortify on Demand portal s global search now provides filtering search results by applications, releases, and/or reports. The number of results displayed is also increased. Improved Navigation by Scan Status Icons Users can now directly access details of the most recent scan status for a release by clicking the status icons displayed in the Your Applications, Your Releases, Application Overview, and Release Overview pages. Not Started (not applicable for Your Applications page): you are redirected to the relevant Scan Setup page or to the Release Scans page for a network scan. Scheduled: you are redirected to the relevant Scan Setup page. In Progress: you are redirected to the Release Scans page. Paused: you are redirected to the Release Scans page and the Help Center Tickets modal window. Canceled: you are redirected to the relevant Scan Setup page or to the Release Scans page for a canceled network scan. Completed: you are redirected to the Release Issues page filtered by the relevant scan type. Monitoring: you are redirected to the application's Application Monitoring page.

10 Improved Display and Logging of Paused Scan Activity The portal now has improved display and logging of paused scan activity. All release-level pages display a status bar notifying the pause and pause reason, along with a link to access associated Help Center tickets. The application s event log now records the paused date and time, pause reason, and associated Help Center tickets. Data exports include the Paused Count (number of times scan was paused) and Pause Reasons (reasons for the scan pause) columns. The pause count and pause reasons have been added to the scan summary available on the Application Scans and Release Scans pages The following API endpoints now return pause count and pause reasons: GET /api/v3/applications/{applicationid}/scans GET /api/v3/releases/{releaseid}/scans Standardized False Positive Challenge Submission Process The False Positive Challenge submission process has been standardized to support timely, accurate review of false positive challenges by the Fortify on Demand security experts. The False Positive Challenge form guides users through the supplemental information needed by the security experts. This must be completed to update the Developer Status and enable the challenge to be submitted. Users can only flag issues during the remediation period of the last scan where the issues were found. After the remediation period has expired, security experts no longer have access to certain relevant scan details. If a user believes multiple issues are false positives due to a common mitigating control or similar reason, users should mark one representative issue for the false positive challenge. Based on feedback from the Fortify on Demand experts, the user can then choose whether to suppress other potentially related issues. Improved Reporting of Static Scan Files The Static File Listing report module now lists all scanned files according to the FPR, including file size and last modified date. This helps users to check which files were scanned as well as compare differences in previous scans. Note: The Static File Listing report module has been removed from the Static Summary and Hybrid Summary report templates. Updated Software Security Center Link Utility Software Security Center (SSC) Link Utility version has been released. The SSC Link Utility now allows customization of the Fortify on Demand API URL through the user interface, along with several bug fixes. Fortify on Demand (17.1) Page 10 of
