SecHive automatically scans your Maven projects against 318,000+ known vulnerabilities from the National Vulnerability Database. Free, open-source, and zero-configuration.
Every dependency is a potential security risk. Most developers discover vulnerabilities weeks or months too late.
Your production application is down. A critical security vulnerability in a dependency you didn't even know you were using has been exploited. The breach affects thousands of users. Your team scrambles to patch the issue, but the damage is done.
This nightmare scenario happens more often than you think.
SecHive turns security from a quarterly audit into a seamless part of your build process.
You have no idea that log4j-core 2.14.1 has 37 known vulnerabilities, including CVE-2021-44228 (Log4Shell) with a CVSS score of 10.0
Now you know. Now you can fix it.
Built for developers who want security without the complexity.
Add one plugin to your pom.xml. That's it. No complex YAML files, no security expertise needed, no learning curve.
Automatically downloads the latest NVD database on first run, then intelligently updates only new/changed data. Always scanning against fresh vulnerability data.
HTML reports with visual dependency trees, direct NVD links, severity breakdowns, and trend analysis showing new vs. resolved vulnerabilities.
Track your security posture over time. See exactly which CVEs were resolved, introduced, or remain pending between scans.
Works seamlessly with GitHub Actions, Jenkins, GitLab CI, Azure DevOps, CircleCI, and any platform that runs Maven.
Run as a standalone Docker container with continuous Git polling or local project scanning. Supports any Git repository: GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, Azure DevOps, self-hosted Git servers. NEW: Scan local projects on disk with watch mode for continuous monitoring.
First scan: 20-30 minutes (one-time database download). Every scan after: 2-3 minutes. Intelligent caching reduces scan times dramatically.
How SecHive transformed security for a legacy enterprise application
"Security went from a quarterly audit to a continuous, automated check on every build. Game changer."
Three simple steps to secure your Maven project
Open target/sechive-reports/sechive-report.html in your browser.
That's it! You're now scanning for vulnerabilities.
Commercial Edition pays for itself in hours, not months. Here's how teams justify the upgrade.
Time is money. If 5 developers save 10 minutes each per day with faster scans, that's 20+ hours saved per month. Your team's time costs more than $149.
License compliance isn't optional. One GPL violation can cost $50,000+ in legal fees. Commercial Edition automatically checks 150+ license combinations and prevents compliance disasters.
SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI-DSS all require vulnerability tracking and SBOM documentation. Commercial Edition provides unlimited scan history, PDF reports, and CycloneDX/SPDX SBOMs that auditors actually accept.
Predictive update analysis is a game-changer. Instead of spending 2 hours researching which spring-security version to upgrade to, Commercial Edition tells you: "Upgrade to 6.2.1 - resolves 8 CVEs, introduces 0 new ones, safe update."
See exactly how your builds use resources with beautiful real-time dashboards showing CPU, memory, threads, and GC activity. Get AI-powered recommendations for JVM tuning and thread pool optimization. Identify bottlenecks instantly with color-coded sparkline graphs and intelligent alerting. NEW: Historical trend analysis automatically detects regressions by comparing each build to the last 10 builds, with actionable insights like "⚠ Memory usage increased by 15% - consider increasing heap size".
Security isn't just about scans - it's about trends. Commercial Edition provides unlimited historical tracking, PostgreSQL/MySQL storage for querying years of scan data. See your security posture improve over time, not just "scan passed/failed".
Webhook notifications to Slack, Teams, or Discord mean your security team knows about CRITICAL vulnerabilities within seconds, not days. Real-time alerts = faster response = reduced risk exposure.
Native integration with GitHub Code Scanning & Azure Pipelines. SARIF reports automatically appear in GitHub Security tab. PR comments with vulnerability summaries. Progressive policy enforcement - fail only on NEW vulnerabilities, not existing ones.
Interactive D3.js dependency trees show exactly which transitive dependency introduced that critical CVE. Version conflict detection ("Jar Hell") catches when multiple versions of the same library exist. See vulnerability propagation paths at a glance.
Intelligent task distribution with work-stealing queues, priority-based selection. 20-30% base performance + 40-60% additional throughput.
Cross-project caching with 80-95% hit rates. 15x faster incremental builds, 6x for microservices, 1.6x for monorepos.
Real-time enrichment from NVD, MITRE ATT&CK, CISA KEV, Recorded Future, ThreatConnect. Enhanced risk scoring.
AI-powered Maven Central analysis: "Upgrade to 2.16.1 - resolves 12 CVEs, introduces 0 new ones, safe update."
150+ license checks, GPL/AGPL violation prevention, 3 built-in policies (Enterprise, Permissive, Strict).
PDF, SARIF (GitHub Code Scanning), Excel. CycloneDX & SPDX SBOM with VEX support.
TimescaleDB/PostgreSQL/MySQL/H2 persistent storage. CVE trend tracking, time-to-remediation metrics, automatic schema migrations.
Email & webhooks to Slack, Microsoft Teams, Discord. WebSocket monitoring for instant critical CVE alerts.
Export to Splunk, Elasticsearch, IBM QRadar, ArcSight, LogRhythm. Centralized security monitoring.
Native GitHub Actions & Azure DevOps integration. Jenkins, CircleCI, GitLab CI support with SARIF reports.
Standalone container with Git polling or local project scanning. Supports GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, Azure DevOps, self-hosted servers. NEW: Watch mode for continuous local monitoring.
D3.js interactive dependency trees, version conflict detection ("Jar Hell"), vulnerability propagation paths.
Grype scanner integration, multi-scanner parallel processing, enhanced OWASP configuration.
One prevented security incident or license violation pays for 20+ years of Commercial Edition.
$149/month is insurance, not an expense.
Your builds never fail. If your monthly subscription expires, SecHive automatically falls back to Community Edition - no interruptions, no broken builds.
Scans continue with community features. Renew anytime to restore commercial features instantly.
Requirement: Quarterly security audits, SBOM documentation, license compliance
Community Edition: Manual audits (16 hours), no SBOM, no license tracking = $8,000/quarter
Commercial Edition: Automated CycloneDX/SPDX SBOMs, PostgreSQL historical tracking, license policy enforcement, PDF audit reports = $0 manual work
Problem: "Which transitive dependency is bringing in log4j 2.14.1 with 37 CVEs?"
Community Edition: Run mvn dependency:tree, manually grep for log4j, trace back = 30-45 minutes
Commercial Edition: Open interactive D3.js dependency tree, click on log4j, see full path highlighted = 5 seconds
