Security | Threat Detection | Cyberattacks | DevSecOps | Compliance

A month ago I tweeted about my annoyance with SSO or Single Sign On. While single is in the name, I’m required to “single sign on” multiple times a day. I’m not the only one; the tweet went viral with over 25k likes and 2 Million impressions. The tongue-in-check tweet created a lot of fun responses and more rage against SSO user experience than I expected. SSO was meant to solve password fatigue but we got something worse.

Static Application Security Testing (SAST) is an effective and well-established application security testing technology. It allows developers to create high-quality and secure software that is resistant to the kinds of attacks that have grown more prevalent in recent years. However, the challenge with SAST is that it tends to produce a high number of false positives that waste the time of your engineering team. In this blog we take a look at SAST and the problem of false positives.

More and more business-critical applications run on Amazon Web Services. Protecting these mission-critical applications from potential attacks requires moving beyond typical security approaches such as using only a jump box or firewall to control access. This multi-part tutorial will show how DevOps teams can secure their AWS services using a zero-trust, identity-based approach that not only increases security, but improves developer productivity.
