What Our Security Experts Discussed at AWS re:Invent 2023

The landscape of coding is changing as developers embrace AI, automation, microservices, and third-party libraries to boost productivity. While each new approach enhances efficiency, like a double-edged sword, flaws and vulnerabilities are also introduced faster than teams can fix them. Learn about one of the latest innovations solving this in a recap of what our security experts discussed at AWS re:Invent 2023.

State of Log4j Vulnerabilities: How Much Did Log4Shell Change?

December 9 marks two years since the world went on high alert because of what was deemed one of the most critical zero-day vulnerabilities ever: Log4Shell. The vulnerability that carried the highest possible severity rating (10.0) was in Apache Log4j, an ubiquitous Java logging framework that Veracode estimated at the time was used in 88 percent of organizations.

How Dynamic Analysis Multi-factor Authentication Helps You Enhance Automation for DevSecOps

DevSecOps, or secure DevOps, is the mindset in software development that everyone is responsible for application security. By integrating developers with IT operations and focusing everyone on making better security decisions, development teams can deliver safer software with greater speed and efficiency. In practice, DevSecOps can add some friction and hinder the development process.

How Dynamic Analysis Helps You Enhance Automation for DevSecOps

DevSecOps, also known as secure DevOps, represents a mindset in software development that holds everyone accountable for application security. By fostering collaboration between developers and IT operations and directing collective efforts towards better security decision-making, development teams can deliver safer software with greater speed and efficiency. Despite its merits, implementing DevSecOps can introduce friction into the development process.

Open Source Vulnerability Management Recommendations for 2024

Stepping in 2024, the dynamics of open source vulnerability management are shifting. Rapid changes to software development demand a more nuanced approach to open source security from practitioners. From redefining risk to the cautious integration of auto-remediation, here are the pivotal recommendations for successful open source vulnerability management in 2024 and beyond.

Preventing Broken Access Control Vulnerabilities in Web Applications

Access control is crucial for modern web development as it enables the management of how users, processes, and devices should be granted permissions to application functions and resources. Access control mechanisms also determine the level of access permitted and manifest activities carried out by specific entities. Broken access control vulnerabilities arise when a malicious user abuses the constraints on the actions they are allowed to perform or the objects they can access.

Top 5 Open Source Security Risks IT Leaders Must Know

Lurking in the open source software (OSS) that pervades applications around the world are open source security risks technology leaders must be aware of. Software is one of technology’s most vulnerable subsets with over 70% of applications containing security flaws. Here are the open source security risks IT leaders must be aware of to protect technology and help it scale safely.

DevSecOps Best Practices: Leveraging Veracode DAST Essentials

DevSecOps is a modern approach to software development that implements security as a shared responsibility throughout application development, deployment, and operations. As an extension of DevOps principles, DevSecOps helps your organization integrate security testing throughout the software development life cycle. In this blog, we discuss DevSecOps best practices and practical steps to producing secure software.

New Data Reveals Top Drivers of Secure Software in Financial Services Sector

Across the globe, the financial services sector is affected by increased security regulations. To name a few, there is the United States’ Executive Order on Improving the Nation’s Cybersecurity, the European Union’s NIS2 Directive, the SEC’s new rules on disclosures, and ISO 20022.

Securing Your Web Applications and APIs with Dynamic Analysis

Web applications are one of the most common vector for breaches, accounting for over 40% of breaches according to Verizon's 2022 Data Breach Report. Ensuring that your web applications are sufficiently protected and continue to be monitored once they are in production is vital to the security of your customers and your organization.
