How it works
Follow the vulnerability into your application.
A CVE tells you a package has a known vulnerability. Your team still needs to understand what that means for the application you ship. Dependency Exploit Validation does that investigation, connecting the advisory to how your code uses the package.
Establish the package risk.
DryRun identifies known vulnerabilities in your dependencies, including the affected versions. The finding starts with a specific package and the vulnerability associated with it.
Examine the conditions for exploitation.
DryRun evaluates how your application uses the package. A vulnerable function called with user-supplied input has different implications from a package used for unrelated functionality.
Give the finding a reason to matter.
Application context explains the finding's significance. Your team can inspect the evidence and focus remediation on the risks that matter in your code.
Real Customer's Experience
A smaller queue. A clearer place to start.
One customer went from 4,000 dependency findings to 397 actionable, high-priority findings. Application context brought the work that needed attention into focus.

Put your team's attention where it counts.
Cut through the CVE noise. Customers are seeing a ~92% reduction in dependency findings to review.
A focused queue gives AppSec room to investigate consequential risk and help engineering act on it.
Spend less time in the CVE queue.
DryRun adds application context to package findings so your team can focus its review. Spend less of the day sorting alerts and more of it deciding which vulnerabilities need attention.
Explain why a finding matters.
Connect a package vulnerability to its use in your application and the conditions for exploitation. AppSec gets evidence it can inspect and use to explain a remediation priority to engineering.
Give repairs a useful starting point.
Developers and connected coding agents get the security context needed to address findings. Repairs return through the configured review workflow, so the change can be evaluated before it ships.
Carry context into the next review.
The security context graph retains application knowledge and review decisions. Later analysis can build on that understanding as your code changes, giving your team a continuing basis for security decisions.
AppSec expertise. Put to work.
Dependency risk belongs in your security workflow.
Dependency Exploit Validation is part of the DryRun Security Platform's approach to Adversarial Code Assurance. DryRun performs the investigation; your team owns the security decision.
DeepScan builds repository context. AppSec sets requirements through Custom Code Policies, while developers and connected coding agents use remediation context to address findings. Retained security knowledge informs the next review.
