Backslash App Graph represents a groundbreaking approach to application security by creating a virtual twin of your application through graph modeling. Backslash has invented a proprietary "Cyberinformatics Compiler," that ingests application code and recasts it into interconnected data flow and control flow graphs, which are then transformed into an overarching App Graph. The App Graph is a comprehensive virtual twin of your application code.Backslash App Graph reveals your application's structure, dependencies, and execution paths, enabling advanced security analysis far beyond traditional static code scanning. Using Large Language Models, Backslash enriches the App Graph with contextual insights, categorizes code by business processes, identifies reachable and triggerable (exploitable) vulnerabilities, and simulates the impact of patches. Backslash's App Graph innovation empowers security teams to focus on actionable risks, reduce noise, and address vulnerabilities precisely, providing a future-ready solution for modern application security challenges.
