1. A method to reduce security vulnerability in association with a cloud-based static analysis security tool that is accessible by a set of application development environments, comprising: associating a social networking platform with the application development environments; enabling anonymous access to the social networking platform by users of the application development environments, the anonymous access enabling users to upload messages for posting to a forum; prior to posting, filtering a message and, responsive to the filtering, automatically obfuscating sensitive data associated with a particular application development environment and any application code included in the message; receiving security findings generated as users of the application development environments use the cloud-based static analysis security tool; processing the received security findings using machine learning, and storing the processed security findings into a knowledgebase; and providing 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.
