Fortify CLI (fcli): Streamlining AppSec workflows with SSC and ScanCentral SAST

Enterprise development teams face constant pressure to deliver software quickly while maintaining compliance and security standards. As application portfolios grow and toolchains expand, managing security workflows across multiple interfaces can slow down release cycles and create unnecessary friction. For organizations using Software Security Center (SSC) and ScanCentral SAST, simplifying these interactions is essential.

In a recent technical walkthrough, OpenText Solution Consultant Jan Wienand, illustrates how the Fortify Command Line Interface (fcli) provides a unified, automation-ready method for interacting with both SSC and ScanCentral SAST. By consolidating core AppSec operations into a single, consistent interface, fcli helps teams streamline processes, eliminate manual overhead, and integrate application security more effectively into modern DevSecOps pipelines.

Unifying AppSec interactions through a single interface

Fcli is designed to reduce fragmentation across the AppSec ecosystem. Instead of relying on separate interfaces or utilities, teams can use one command-line tool to authenticate, upload artifacts, initiate SAST scans ...
