8. Apparatus, comprising: a processor; computer memory holding computer program instructions executed by one or more processors to reduce security vulnerability in association with a cloud-based static analysis security tool that is accessible by a set of application development environments, the computer program instructions operative to: associate a social networking platform with the application development environments, the social networking platform being accessible by users of the application development environments anonymously; prior to publishing a message received for posting from an anonymous user, filter the message and, responsive to the filtering, automatically obfuscate sensitive data associated with a particular application development environment included in the message; receive security findings generated as users of the application development environments use the cloud-based static analysis security tool; process the received security findings into a knowledgebase; and provide social network content associated with the processed security findings from the knowledgebase as crowdsourced security knowledge generated from use of the cloud-based static analysis security tool by users of the application development environments.
