Problem
Static code scanners often miss logic-based vulnerabilities that arise from complex business rules, architecture, and deployment contexts, leading to false positives and undetected security flaws in modern applications.
Solution
OpenHack analyzes the full codebase, architecture, and business context to automatically generate threat models and prioritize vulnerabilities based on real business impact. It validates each finding with an end‑to‑end exploit proof, ensuring only exploitable issues are reported. The platform integrates with major development stacks such as JavaScript/TypeScript, Python, Go, Java, and Ruby, and works with frameworks like Next.js, Django, Flask, Rails, Express, and FastAPI. Automated business impact scoring ranks issues by potential data exposure, financial loss, compliance risk, and service availability, allowing developers to focus on the most critical problems. The OpenHack CLI enables scanning from the terminal, delivering validated findings and fix pull‑requests without leaving the developer workflow.
Target Audience
Primary customers are development and security teams at software companies that need accurate, context‑aware vulnerability detection for web and backend applications built with the supported languages and frameworks.
Features
- Full‑context analysis that ingests code, architecture, and deployment layers to build a mental model of the application
- Automated threat modeling that generates specific, actionable attack scenarios derived from the actual codebase
- Business impact scoring that ranks vulnerabilities by real‑world consequences such as data breach risk and financial loss
- End‑to‑end exploit verification with working proof‑of‑concepts, eliminating false positives
- CLI tool for local scanning, exploit validation, and automatic fix PR generation
- Support for major languages (JavaScript/TypeScript, Python, Go, Java, Ruby) and frameworks (Next.js, Django, Flask, Rails, Express, FastAPI)
- Open‑source model that runs up to 40× cheaper than frontier‑model agents while maintaining high detection accuracy
