Client Brief

A leading organization in the utility domain approached Sujosu Technology with a requirement to transition from a multi-tenant instance to a single-tenant instance of Checkmarx, a comprehensive static application security testing (SAST) solution. The client’s repositories, however, presented a unique challenge due to their reliance on a custom build pipeline script rather than the standard DevSecOps (DSO) Template.

Key Features

The Sujosu Technology team successfully completed the transition within the stipulated timeframe, achieving the following outcomes:

  1. Enhanced Security: The single-tenant Checkmarx instance provided the client with high levels of data isolation and security controls. It also includes features for enhanced customization while maintaining security.

  2. Seamless Integration: The custom-build pipeline scripts worked flawlessly with the new instance, ensuring continuity in the client’s workflows.

  3. Timely Delivery: The project was completed on schedule, with minimal disruption to the client’s operations.

  4. Improved Compliance: The single-tenant instance met the client’s compliance requirements more effectively than the multi-tenant setup.

  5. Operational Continuity: The meticulous approach taken by Sujosu Technology ensured uninterrupted operations during and after the transition.

  6. Custom Solution Expertise: The team’s ability to adapt and modify custom pipeline scripts demonstrated Sujosu Technology’s expertise in handling complex client-specific challenges.

Challenges

The transition to a single-tenant Checkmarx instance required meticulous changes to the custom pipeline scripts while ensuring:


  1. Seamless Integration: The modified scripts needed to integrate the single-tenant instance without disrupting existing build processes.

  2. Pipeline Complexity: The custom-built pipeline scripts demanded an in-depth review to identify and incorporate the necessary changes.


Stipulated Timeline: The transition had to be executed within a strict timeframe to minimize operational downtime and maintain compliance with the client’s project schedules.

Our Solution

The Sujosu Technology team began by conducting a detailed analysis of the existing custom pipeline scripts to:


Phase 1: Comprehensive Pipeline Review

  • Understand Dependencies: Identify dependencies and touchpoints where the multi-tenant Checkmarx instance was invoked.

  • Map Changes: Determine the required modifications to align with the single-tenant instance setup.


Phase 2: Strategic Modifications

  • Script Updates: The team updated the custom scripts to redirect integrations from the multi-tenant to the single-tenant Checkmarx instance.

  • ConfigurationAlignment: Adjustments were made to ensure compatibility with the single-tenant architecture, including authentication and repository access settings.

  • Testing: Iterative testing was performed to validate the modifications and identify potential issues early.


Phase 3: Transition and Deployment

  • Deployment Execution: The transition to the single-tenant instance was executed in a phased manner to minimize risks.

  • Post-Deployment Testing: Comprehensive testing ensured the pipeline's functionality, with all repositories successfully integrated with the new Checkmarx One instance.
