Why Codex Security Doesn’t Include a SAST Report

Codex Security is designed to start from repository structure, trust boundaries, and intended behavior, rather than from a SAST report.

SAST is good at tracking dataflow, but it often misses whether validation, sanitization, decoding, and parsing actually preserve security.

This approach is better at surfacing issues like validation-order bugs, parser mismatches, and sanitizers that do not truly make the system safe.

Findings are validated before human review, helping reduce false confidence and focus attention on real security failures.
