JFrog Xray

JFrog Xray is an enterprise-scale software composition analysis (SCA) and deep binary security scanning solution engineered to detect known vulnerabilities, open-source software license violations, and operational risks residing in binary artifacts, container images, and software dependencies across the entire DevOps pipeline. Operating natively within JFrog Artifactory, Xray inspects compiled software components with deep recursive unpacking technology.

The solution provides continuous, automated scanning across all software package types managed within Artifactory. Key platform capabilities include deep recursive binary unpacking (inspecting container layers, nested zip archives, and compiled dependencies), automated impact analysis that maps vulnerability blast radius across all internal software projects, continuous monitoring for newly disclosed CVEs affecting historical builds, automated generation of comprehensive Software Bills of Materials (SBOMs), and configurable automated policy actions (such as blocking artifact downloads or failing CI/CD builds).

Global software organizations, financial institutions, and automotive enterprises deploy JFrog Xray to protect software supply chains and prevent vulnerable open-source code from entering production systems. It integrates smoothly with major developer IDEs, Jenkins, GitLab CI, and Jira. Common operational use cases include identifying Log4j or openssl vulnerabilities across thousands of historical container builds, enforcing corporate open-source license compliance (such as flagging GPL licenses), generating verified CycloneDX and SPDX SBOMs to satisfy federal standards, and empowering developers with clear remediation advice.
