Learn how to set up continuous assurance with Code Dx to improve code quality and security at the speed of DevOps. Continuous integration (CI) has made a tremendous impact on how we develop software. The concept is simple: fail fast and fail often. This allows the team to fix problems before they become a big deal, saving time and money.

Accountability is essential for AppSec analysts, managers, and CISOs. Learn how ASOC tools bring the visibility and transparency required. We have already discussed how application security orchestration and correlation (ASOC) makes the AppSec process more efficient and scalable. In this final post in our ASOC series, we will demonstrate how ASOC tools bring accountability to both the technical and business sides of application security.

Are you putting your organization at risk with outdated security strategies? Embrace next-gen AppSec to reduce security risks without impeding DevOps. Application development practices continue to evolve, enabling development teams to deliver applications at a pace never before thought possible. At the same time, cyber-criminals have developed new levels of attack strategies and intensified their focus, making it more important than ever to scrutinize applications for security vulnerabilities.

Back in May 1998, as a member of the hacker think tank, L0pht, I testified under my hacker name, Weld Pond, in front of a U.S. Senate committee investigating government cybersecurity. It was a novel event. Hackers, testifying under their hacker names, telling the U.S. government how the world of cybersecurity really was from those down in the computer underground trenches.

Learn how ASOC tools make scaling possible through application security automation and orchestration. In part one of our series on application security orchestration and correlation (ASOC), we looked at how this new application security trend improves DevSecOps efficiency. We will now focus on the typical challenges AppSec teams face due to today’s rapid development cycles, and how ASOC tools can solve these challenges with automation and scalability.

Using the right AppSec tools and services throughout the software development life cycle can help you properly secure your sensitive data. One of a CISO’s primary responsibilities is protecting their company’s digital assets, and adhering to current and emerging data privacy laws is crucial. Organizations must ensure that their corporate intellectual property and user data (e.g., customer, employee, contractor and/or prospect data) is safe from cyber attacks and data breaches.

This is the ninth entry in blog series on using Java Cryptography securely. We started off by looking at the basics of Java Cryptography Architecture, assembling one crypto primitive after other in posts on Cryptographically Secure Random Number Generator, symmetric & asymmetric encryption/decryption & hashes. In the meantime, we had to catchup with cryptographic update in latest versions of Java. Having looked at some of the most common symmetric cryptography based applications a.k.a.

Tom Hudson (TH), Senior Security Researcher at Detectify, joined the Application Security Weekly podcast to talk about the status quo on web scanners and securing modern web applications. We’ve edited the transcript for brevity and taken some highlights from the pod episode below.
