The Software Assurance Marketplace (SWAMP) is an effort to help developers build more secure code by providing freely available tools to scan and audit code. SWAMP got its start in 2014 with support for C/C++ and Java and is now expanding to support Python code.
SWAMP is funded by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Science and Technology Directorate, Homeland Security Advanced Research Projects Agency, Cyber Security Division (DHS S&T/HSARPA/CSD) and the Air Force Research Laboratory, Information Directorate.
