Software Trust offers two types of threat detection:

  • Scan software for malware, vulnerabilities, secrets, and more before releasing your software for consumption using our Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) service powered by ReversingLabs.

  • Scan Developer ID-signed software for malicious components before distribution outside of the Mac App Store.

If you don't see Threat detection in the left navigation menu, contact your account manager. To learn how to run a scan and interpret a scan report, see Threat detection.
