Auto-injection of security protocols

A computer system comprising:

• a non-transitory memory device for storing computer readable program code;
• and
• at least one processor in communication with the memory device, the processor being operative with the computer readable program code to:
• evaluate the source code file of a monitored computer program, the source code file comprising a plurality of class files;
• perform a security assessment on each of the plurality of class files to identify one or more potential security issues associated with the plurality of class files;
• automatically inject into a source code of one or more class files, identified as having potential security issues, one or more security controls configured to address the identified potential security issues;
• and
• cause the automatically modified source code file of the monitored computer program to be deployed to a run-time environment.

One or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media, having computer-executable instructions embodied thereon, wherein when executed by at least one processor, the computer-executable instructions cause the processor to:

• evaluate the source code file of a monitored computer program, the source code file comprising a plurality of class files;
• perform a security assessment on each of the plurality of class files to identify one or more potential security issues associated with the plurality of class files;
• automatically inject into a source code of one or more class files, identified as having potential security issues, one or more security controls configured to address the identified potential security issues;
• and
• cause the automatically modified source code file of the monitored computer program to be deployed to a run-time environment.
