Fortify SCA also now supports the creation of customised report with a simple, wizard-based approach. For enterprises concerned with compliance initiatives such as PCI or FISMA, Fortify SCA now comes with pre-built reports to help enterprises quickly gauge progress against mandates. Moreover, developers will remediate security issues even faster with Fortify SCA’s new graphical interface to visually describe the vulnerabilities uncovered.
