SonarQube is the most-deployed code-quality platform in the world. It excels at quality gates, code smells, and developer feedback loops, with a growing security ruleset. dpndncY focuses on AppSec end-to-end — SCA + native SAST + IaC + secrets + container + Dependency Firewall + eBPF runtime + signed evidence.
AppSec platform with enforcement and signed evidence.
Self-managed, multi-tenant security platform. Multi-signal exploitability fusion (CISA KEV, EPSS, ExploitDB, reachability, attack-path, license obligations). Pre-install firewall + eBPF runtime + cryptographically signed runtime evidence (firewall + scan attestations on roadmap).
Code-quality platform with security rules.
Strong static-analysis foundation, developer-friendly quality gates, broad language coverage. Security ruleset added on top of quality engine; no SCA enforcement layer, no signed evidence pipeline.
Same set of capabilities. Different stack.
