Security reports

Security reports are available in Enterprise plan.

What do security reports show?

They represent the bare minimum to comply with for anyone putting in place a secure development lifecycle.

Make sure the relevant security rules are activated in your quality profiles; otherwise, your security reports will not be reliable. For instance, if no rule corresponding to a given OWASP category is activated in your quality profile, you won't get issues or hotspots linked to that specific category in the OWASP report.
