Announcing DevGrid + Checkmarx Partnership: A New Era of Secure Engineering

September 23, 2025

In today’s software development landscape, organizations are under mounting pressure to deliver value faster. Agile methodologies, microservices architectures, and DevOps practices have accelerated delivery cycles. But with increased speed comes increased risk—particularly in the form of security vulnerabilities that often emerge unnoticed and unresolved until they create major problems.

That’s why we are thrilled to announce a strategic partnership between DevGrid and Checkmarx, aimed at bringing security to the forefront of engineering operations.

This partnership is grounded in a shared belief: security should be a seamless part of the software development lifecycle, not an afterthought. Our collaboration brings together Checkmarx’s best-in-class SAST and SCA capabilities with DevGrid‘s intelligent orchestration and observability across engineering systems.

What the Integration Enables

With this integration, the security scanning lifecycle and remediation become core components of EngOps. Here’s what you can expect:

  • Checkmarx scans your code, integrated directly into build and CI/CD pipelines.
  • Vulnerabilities are contextually linked in DevGrid to the exact project, service, and repository where they were found.
  • Severity & SLA-based prioritization to focus on the issues that matter most, when they matter, no more waiting for a spreadsheet from the infosec team.
  • Real-time visibility at the developer, team, and portfolio levels for Engineering Teams.

Bridging the Gap Between Development and Security

One of the biggest challenges organizations face today is the disconnect between development and security teams. Security often happens in isolation, producing results that are difficult for engineers to act on due to lack of context.

The DevGrid + Checkmarx integration solves this by providing shared context, aggregation, and collaborative reporting:

  • Security findings are surfaced right where engineers manage their work.
  • Developers have a single place to find issues, even if there are multiple tools.
  • Security and Engineering leadership can report against the existing portfolios and teams without have to reconstruct that context in security tools.
  • SLA adherence and avg time to remediate can both be metrics that go into the Engineering Maturity Journey scoring DevGrid provides.

Supporting Engineering, Platform, and Security Teams

This integration isn’t just for developers:

  • Executives and stakeholders can track security performance and trends across portfolios
  • Platform teams can enforce scan coverage and remediation SLAs
  • Security teams gain centralized visibility and control without disrupting workflows

Organizational Impact

This integration is more than a technical improvement—it represents a cultural shift. By empowering developers to own security from day one, organizations can:

  • Reduce time-to-remediation by up to 70%
  • Eliminate handoff delays between security and engineering
  • Boost delivery confidence by ensuring code is production-ready and secure

Getting Started

The Checkmarx integration is available to all DevGrid customers starting today. Setup is simple:

  1. Navigate to the Integrations tab in your DevGrid workspace.
  2. Select Checkmarx and provide your API credentials.
  3. Choose which projects and services to connect.

Once configured, your next scan results will begin flowing directly into the DevGrid ecosystem.

Looking Ahead

Security is no longer an afterthought—it’s an essential component of the modern software delivery lifecycle. This partnership represents our shared vision to make secure engineering the default, not the exception.

Stay tuned for more enhancements.

Together, DevGrid and Checkmarx are redefining what secure software delivery looks like.
