Application vulnerability management
You can’t plug every gap, but application vulnerability management is here to ensure you don’t miss anything that matters. Reclaim application vulnerability management If application security sometimes feels like bringing a knife to a gunfight, it’s understandable: The average team monitors 129 applications, and over 118,000 alerts. When resources are tight, many organizations focus on […]
AppSec: security for applications
Managing application security risks in today’s accelerated development process is difficult. Here’s what you can do about it. It’s been twenty-five years since Microsoft engineers first coined the term “cross-site scripting” (XSS). Since then, the vulnerability has featured consistently in the OWASP Top 10 of security risks in web applications. It’s in “good” company: all […]
Software Composition Analysis Tool for Open Source Risks
Today’s software supply chain is an expanding attack surface with vulnerabilities at the core. Here’s how software composition analysis tools can help you identify and mitigate the risks before they become a problem. In today’s accelerated software development environment, the reuse of open-source components and third-party code has brought many benefits, but it has also […]
ASPM vs CSPM: What’s the difference and why does it matter?
Managing security postures across diverse, dynamic environments can be challenging. Here’s an overview of some options, and how defenders can make code-to-cloud visibility a reality. First things first… As the saying goes, “Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit, wisdom is knowing not to put it in a fruit salad.” Miles Kington wasn’t talking […]
Seven things to look for in an ASPM solution
Traditional AppSec tools can’t provide the code-to-cloud visibility and manageability today’s AppSec teams need to keep up with a radically transformed SDLC. Enter Application Security Posture Management (ASPM)… Here’s what you need to know, and seven critical things to look for in a solution. The average security team now monitors 129 applications and up to […]
Consolidation is king: How ASPM is transforming AppSec
Is your sprawling AppSec toolset stopping threats or burning out staff and resources? Time for the ASPM diet… Cyber alert fatigue at the forefront In 1967, The Joint Computer Conference coined the term “penetration testing.” Four years later, Bob Thomas’s “Creeper” virus/worm demonstrated the possibilities of mobile code — and exposed vulnerabilities and flaws in […]
Software composition analysis (SCA) Security
Software supply chain attacks have increased by 742% in the past three years. Here’s how software composition analysis (SCA) can play a critical role in mitigating the risks of compromise. Today’s applications are complex pieces of software, involving multiple components, third-party integrations, and cloud services. Increasingly, they’re also assembled from multiple, disparate sources: 40-80% of […]
Three Ways Ox Security Helps You Navigate Financial Compliance in Application Security
Compliance with financial regulations is non-negotiable for financial services organizations. Every entity — whether a bank, insurance provider, fintech startup, or investment firm — must adhere to complex regulations that ensure secure management of financial data, protect consumers, and safeguard market integrity. From data handling and access controls to risk management and auditing, financial regulations […]
What Users Want from ASPM
The biggest AppSec dilemma might be resolved in the coming year using modern ASPM, experts believe. Application Security Posture Management (ASPM) is rapidly evolving into a powerful capability in the infosec industry. As with many nascent cybersecurity areas, ASPM is emerging from a conglomeration of multiple tightly focused categories that preceded its existence — in […]
Your guide to Application Security Posture Management (ASPM)
What is Application Security Posture Management? Application Security Posture Management (ASPM) is an approach to managing and improving the security of applications throughout their lifecycle. It unifies application security practices across the software development lifecycle (SDLC), taking multiple silos like static application security testing (SAST), software composition analysis (SCA), secrets detection, and infrastructure as code […]
What is Application Security Posture Management (ASPM)
Application Security Posture Management (ASPM) is a strategy designed to unify and improve the security of your applications. It pulls together various security practices, like static application security testing (SAST), software composition analysis (SCA), secrets detection, and infrastructure as code (IaC), into a single, cohesive platform.
From Alert Fatigue to Actionable Insights: How SCA Fits Into Active ASPM
Using third-party components in application development has become a norm rather than an exception. While boosting efficiency and innovation, this trend also opens up a Pandora’s box of security vulnerabilities that adversaries can exploit. The challenge of identifying and remediating these vulnerabilities as early as possible in the development process is paramount. Yet, many Software […]
