# Quick Start

{% hint style="info" %}
**Sec3 X-ray scanner software is a security scanner specifically designed for Solana smart contracts.** &#x20;

**Sec3 X-ray can detect more than 50 types of security vulnerabilities and can be integrated into the GitHub CI development process.**

**Integrating Sec3 X-ray into your protocol's development process can shift security practices left, reduce costly security issues, and speed up time-to-market.**

**sec3 X-ray has been adopted at leading Solana Protocols; try it out today!**
{% endhint %}

**Sec3 X-ray offers a number of features:**

* It detects **50+ types of common security vulnerabilities** in Solana smart contracts, including both Rust-native and Anchor-based programs. See a partial list of the “[Sec3 Vulnerabilities and Exposures (SVE)](https://pro.sec3.dev/sves)”.
* It is **integrated into GitHub CI** and **code scanning alerts**.
* It issues a **certificate** when no vulnerabilities are found in the program
* It provides a **dashboard** to navigate the reported vulnerabilities
* It is **fast**: it generates a full report in a few minutes for complex programs.
* It is **available 24/7**

### **4. Upgrade to a paid plan**

The free plan has limited features (e.g., it detects only a subset of the 50+ SVEs). To upgrade, choose a [Build or Scale plan](https://pro.sec3.dev/account#plan) and fill in payment info (either by card or US bank account)**.**

### **5. Download SARIF report**

Sec3 X-ray also generates a [SARIF](https://docs.oasis-open.org/sarif/sarif/v2.1.0/sarif-v2.1.0.html) report of the results, which can be downloaded from the dashboard.
