Security Scanning System Architecture
About This Architecture
Multi-layer security scanning system integrating React frontend, Spring Boot backend, and async processing engine for comprehensive source code and binary analysis. Users upload artifacts through the React UI, triggering the Backend API to create scan jobs and invoke the Scanner Engine asynchronously. The Scanner Engine orchestrates third-party SCA tools (Clarity, FossID) and an internal SBOM tool to detect vulnerabilities and dependencies, normalizing results back to the Database and File Storage. This architecture decouples user-facing operations from long-running security analysis, enabling scalable vulnerability detection without blocking API responses. Fork and customize this diagram on Diagrams.so to adapt SCA tool integrations, add webhook notifications, or implement result aggregation logic.
People also ask
How should I architect a security scanning platform that integrates multiple SCA tools and handles asynchronous vulnerability detection?
This diagram shows a proven multi-layer architecture where a React frontend and Spring Boot backend manage scan requests, while an async Scanner Engine orchestrates third-party SCA tools (Clarity, FossID) and internal SBOM analysis. Results are normalized and persisted in a database, enabling scalable vulnerability detection without blocking user operations.
