Java services business Azul has revealed Azul Vulnerability Detection, a SaaS product that leverages the Azul JVM to continually keep track of Java applications for security vulnerabilities.Azul Vulnerability Detection, introduced November 2, is an agentless cloud service created for production use. It resolves enterprise risk around software application supply chain attacks and eliminates false positives while not affecting efficiency, Azul said.Accessible from azul.com, Azul Vulnerability Detection recognizes code running in the Azul JVM and maps it against a curated Java-specific database of common vulnerabilities and exposures(CVEs). A history of detections is maintained so when new CVEs are disclosed, users can determine when and on what systems they have actually been running vulnerable software.Azul Vulnerability Detection checks all Java software application consisting of structures such as Spring, Hibernate, Tomcat, Quarkus, and Micronaut, and consisting of infrastructure such as Kafka, Cassandra, Elasticsearch, Glow, Hive, and Hadoop. By leveraging tracking and detection developed into Azul JVMs, it removes an efficiency penalty.Azul Vulnerability Detection belongs to the Azul Intelligence Cloud item household.
