Setting Up a Project

This section will walk you through how to setup a new project within Codefortify

Once you have logged into the application ensure that the left hand navigation window is expanded by hovering over the left hand navigation bar.

• Select the section called "Projects"

• Select "New Project" in the top right corner

• Give your project a name, optionally add a description to remind you and your team what the project is related to

• Select "Save Changes"

Once your project name is saved you will be directed back to the main project directory. In order to connect your Github account to your new project:

• Select the name of the new project you just created

• Select "Add New Repo"

• You will be asked to authenticate your Github user and will be redirected to Github to select the specific organization you will be connecting to Codefortify

  • Once you have selected the organization you would like to connect to select "Authorize <organization_name>"

Once selected you will be redirected back to Codefortify to finish setting up your repositories in your project and select which scanners you would like to activate for that repository

After you have selected the repository you would like to connect you will have the option to select which scanners you would like to automatically setup to start scanning that respository. If you are unsure which ones you'd like select a minimum of one scanner and select "Save Changes" you can always add, remove or change scanners at a later time.

And that's it! In less than 5 minutes you are one step closer to securing your code!
