Anyone who works on application security knows developers are inseparable from AppSec programs. Even so, the hardest part is figuring out how to get security on their agenda and actively involve them in preventing and managing vulnerabilities. Only with their buy-in and active involvement, it is possible to scale an application security program to the level desired by AppSec teams, especially in large enterprises where developers way outnumber security engineers.
With the ever-increasing threat management complexity of cyber threats, Managed Service Providers (MSPs) are turning to MSSP programs to help them scale their security services and provide better protection for their clients.
Gartner just released the Hype Cycle for Application Security 2022, and the main topic was the rise of application security orchestration and correlation (ASOC) tools. As Kondukto, we have been in "this neighbourhood" for more than 3 years; we want to take the chance to say something about "why you need an ASOC platform". As multiple security technologies need to be used at different stages of the modern software development lifecycle, the findings from various tools are creating an immense complexity for understaffed security teams.
