Veracode tests your code. Xygeni secures the whole path from code to pipeline, with malware detection, real remediation and full ASPM, under European jurisdiction.
See how Xygeni compares to Veracode on your own repositories.
Side by side
| Capability |  | Veracode |
|---|---|---|
| Full platform on-premise and air-gapped | SaaS, on-premise, air-gapped. | SaaS only |
| European jurisdiction and entity | European entity, EU jurisdiction. | US-HQ, EU residency. |
| Malware across the SDLC: code, pipelines, IaC, images | The whole SDLC | Components only |
| Pipeline and runner security posture | Secures the pipeline and SCM | Scans in the pipeline |
| Build attestations and CBOM | SBOM, SLSA, in-toto and CBOM | SBOM only |
| Incremental scanning across every scanner | Only what changed, DAST included | Uploads the whole compiled app |
| AI applied to third-party findings | Triage, explanation and fix | Prioritizes, does not fix |
| Developer endpoint protection | Packages, IDE extensions and plugins, plus network traffic, under one org policy. | No product |
| Secrets with auto-revocation and merge block | Detects, revokes and blocks | Detection only |

Differential 01
| | Veracode | |
|---|---|---|
| Where it runs | SaaS, on-premise and air-gapped, full platform including native DAST. No outbound connectivity required. | SaaS only. They reach apps behind the firewall with an installed endpoint, but the control plane stays in their cloud. |
| Under which law | European entity: EU residency and EU jurisdiction. ISO 27001 certified, with an AI inventory and AI-BOM that support EU AI Act evidence. | A US company subject to the US CLOUD Act. EU region in Frankfurt for data residency. |
| Who processes your code with AI | LLM-agnostic: bring your model and your contract. Works in isolated environments too. | Vendor-managed AI. No documented option for a customer-owned model. |
This matters when your DORA, NIS2 or ENS auditor asks about jurisdiction and not only about where the data sits.
Differential 02
| | Veracode | |
|---|---|---|
| Malware across the SDLC | Malware in your code, your pipelines, your IaC and your container images, on top of your components. | Covers open source dependencies. The rest of the SDLC is out of scope. |
| The pipeline as a surface | CI/CD posture: runners, GitHub Actions and behavioral anomaly detection across SCM and CI. | Scans code inside the pipeline. Hardening your runners and your GitHub Actions stays on your side. |
| Build integrity | SBOM plus native SLSA and in-toto attestations, plus CBOM for the cryptographic inventory. | Generates SBOM in CycloneDX and SPDX. |
Differential 03
| | Veracode | |
|---|---|---|
| The code your AI writes | Validation before commit in the IDE, human-versus-AI code traceability, and AI Triage on what the model wrote. | They publish research on the problem. Their own research puts the security pass rate of AI-generated code at 55% (2025 GenAI Code Security Report). There is no product behind it. |
| AI Security | Inventory of models, agents, datasets, endpoints and MCP servers, AI-BOM per scan, and prioritization by real AI attack path. EU AI Act ready. | No AI inventory, no AI-BOM and no risk scoring for your AI assets. |
| Xygeni Shield | Shield protects the developer endpoint: age-based install control for packages, IDE extensions and plugins, blocking of malicious IPs and domains, isolation of a compromised machine, and one policy set by your security team. | No product for AI agent security. Their MCP server is community-built, not an official product. |
Yes, if you need security beyond the code itself. Xygeni covers code, pipelines, IaC and container images, detects malware before a signature exists and fixes findings, under European jurisdiction.
No. Xygeni ASPM ingests Veracode findings and applies AI Triage, Explanation and Remediation to them, so you can start on top of what you run today and consolidate when you are ready.
Residency is where your data is stored. Jurisdiction is which country’s law applies to the company holding it. Xygeni is a European entity, so both residency and jurisdiction are in the EU.
Yes. The full platform, including native DAST, runs as SaaS, on-premise or air-gapped, with no outbound connectivity required.
Xygeni is a European company headquartered in Spain, operating under EU jurisdiction and ISO 27001 certified.
