SecurStack

Overview

SecurStack is a cloud application-security platform that connects scanning with risk prioritization, remediation and build controls. It suits engineering and security teams that want to work through findings in the development cycle; teams needing broad scan coverage can start free, but should expect to manage plan caps as usage grows.

Its combination of code, dependency and secrets scanning is paired with workflows for correlating findings, assigning ownership and guiding remediation. That makes it a more natural fit for teams managing security across repositories than for buyers seeking only a standalone report.

Key features

SecurStack combines static and dynamic application security testing (SAST and DAST), software composition analysis with software bills of materials (SBOM), and secrets scanning. Together, these cover code, dependencies and credentials. Finding correlation and ownership mapping help teams organize results and connect them to responsible owners, while remediation workflows and SBOM management carry the work beyond detection.

Risk scoring combines severity with exposure, service criticality, exploitability and repository history. This can give teams more context for prioritization than severity alone. AI Drive accepts natural-language commands about risks, releases, repositories, owners and service-level agreements; AI remediation suggestions include paths, code snippets, validations and policies aimed at preventing repeat findings.

Teams can set quality gates to block builds that miss their security baseline. That ties policy to delivery, though quality gates are included in Pro rather than Free or Basic. CI/CD integrations cover GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Bitbucket Pipelines, Azure DevOps, Jenkins and CircleCI. Plugins for JetBrains IDEs and VS Code, plus an MCP server compatible with Codex, Claude Code and other agents, offer additional ways to bring security work into developer workflows.

AI Vault stores credentials in collections, grants scoped access through MCP and audits reveals without exposing secret values in listings, logs or reports. SecurStack also describes tenant isolation, granular role-based access, immutable audit logs, secret redaction, encryption in transit and at rest, and workers without public ingress. Those controls address access and data handling concerns; private runners are reserved for Enterprise.

Pricing

The Free plan costs nothing and includes 500 scan credits per month, 3 users, 10 projects, and SAST, SCA and Secrets scanning. It is a sensible starting point for a small team, but it excludes DAST from its stated scan coverage and has tight user, project and credit limits.

Basic costs $5 a month and raises the allowance to 2,500 scan credits per month, 10 users and 25 projects, with 10 API keys. It suits a team that has outgrown the Free caps, but does not include the SSO and quality gates specified for Pro.

Pro costs $15 a month and includes 10,000 scan credits per month, 25 users, unlimited projects, SSO and quality gates. The larger quotas and build policies make it the stronger fit for teams that need to scale scans and enforce a security baseline in CI/CD.

Enterprise has custom pricing and includes 50,000+ credits per month, 100+ users, 100+ API keys, private runners and an SLA. Those allowances and deployment controls are aimed at larger organizations; the step up from Pro is difficult to assess without a published price.

Platforms

SecurStack is available through a web platform and an extension, and its deployment option is cloud. The IDE plugins and CI/CD integrations extend its reach across development workflows, but teams requiring self-hosted deployment should look elsewhere.

Who it's for

Engineering and security teams that need to triage application risks across repositories, map findings to owners and link remediation to build policies are the clearest fit. Engineering leaders and CISOs may also value the scoring and governance controls. The Free plan can suit a small evaluation or limited workload; teams with larger scan volumes, more users or a need for quality gates will need a paid tier.

The contact page offers a personalized demo and says the team responds within one business day, a useful route for organizations assessing Enterprise requirements.

Pros and cons

• Broad scanning in one platform: SAST, DAST, SCA with SBOM and secrets scanning address several application-security needs, though the Free plan includes only SAST, SCA and Secrets.
• Prioritization and remediation are connected: contextual scoring, ownership mapping and AI-assisted guidance can help teams move from finding to action.
• Build policies can enforce a baseline: Pro includes quality gates, but Free and Basic do not.
• Low-cost entry with defined caps: Free and Basic provide clear monthly credit allowances, but users and projects are also limited on those tiers.
• Cloud-only deployment: the web and extension options suit cloud workflows, but not teams seeking a self-hosted deployment.

Alternatives

Application Security Posture Management Software is a useful category page for comparing products beyond this shortlist.

• Arnica Secrets Security is worth considering when weekly automated reports, SSO and a free plan billed per identity per year are a better match; its free tier also includes SAST, SCA, IaC, licensing, reputation and secrets scanning.
• Conviso Platform may suit teams that want a free tier capped at 5 contributing developers, 5 assets, 10 users and 2 integrations, or a Developers plan starting at $19 a month.
• OWASP DefectDojo is the alternative to consider for an open-source Community Edition that is free forever, with support through OWASP Slack and GitHub.
• Phoenix Security offers a free tier for up to 1000 assets, 2 Premium Users plus guests, dashboard reporting and community support; consider it when those asset and user allowances fit better.
• Strobes ASPM has a free plan for up to 100 assets and 500 tasks per month, with ASM, RBVM, ASPM and one connector; it may fit teams whose needs align with those stated caps.
• OX Security is a paid alternative with named products including OX Code and OX VibeSec; its OX Code coverage includes SAST, SCA, secrets/PII, SBOM, IaC, CI/CD, container scanning, IDE and CLI.
• Foxnode ASPM is another free alternative.
• Ivanti Neurons for Zero Trust Access is a paid alternative for buyers considering that product category.

Verdict

SecurStack is a strong choice for engineering and security teams that want scanning, prioritization and remediation linked to development, especially if Pro’s 10,000 monthly credits, unlimited projects, SSO and quality gates fit the workload. Its main drawback is that lower tiers cap credits, users and projects, while Enterprise pricing is custom. Choose it for an integrated cloud workflow with a low-cost starting point; look elsewhere if self-hosting or a clearly priced enterprise tier is essential.
