Takumi Whitebox Assessment is now available directly from the Web Console.

Previously only available via Slack chat or Web chat, you can now run whitebox assessments from the Web Console, just like blackbox assessments. Provide your source code via GitHub repository integration or file upload, and Takumi will analyze the code to detect vulnerabilities.

Overview

Click the "New Assessment" button from the "Assessment" tab in the global sidebar, then select "Source Code" to get started.

You can choose from two assessment modes:

ModeDescription
Full AssessmentScans the entire codebase
Scoped AssessmentEnumerates features first, then lets you select which ones to assess

Source code can be provided via GitHub repository integration or by uploading an archive file (.zip / .tar.gz).

Demo: Starting an Assessment

Click the "New Assessment" button in the upper right corner of the "Assessment" tab to start an assessment.

Assessment Start UI

You can choose from two methods to provide source code:

  • GitHub Repository: Select a repository and specify the target branch
  • File Upload: Upload an archive in .zip or .tar.gz format

You can explicitly specify file paths to include and exclude. This allows you to focus on specific areas of interest or exclude test code and auto-generated files.

Demo: Selecting Features

In "Scoped Assessment" mode, Takumi analyzes the codebase and automatically enumerates features.

Feature Enumeration UI

You can select the features you want to assess from the enumerated list and start the assessment. This helps reduce assessment time and use credits more efficiently.

Demo: Assessment Report

The assessment report can be viewed on the web, as shown below.

Assessment Report UI

Each finding explains which feature had vulnerabilities and their severity and risk levels. Since this is a whitebox assessment, file paths where vulnerabilities were detected are also included.

Getting Started

This feature is available to all "Takumi byGMO" users and can be freely used within your monthly credit allowance. No additional fees or plan changes required.
