451 Research & WhiteHat Security: A Brave New World for Application Security - ERP Spain.com - España y América Latina

A New Year, A Brave New World for Application Security. Are you ready? With technology becoming pervasive and new concepts revolutionizing the nature and reach of IT, applications have become central to business strategy for many organizations. Keeping applications secure has long been a priority. The new year brings fundamental changes to the application security battleground – and with them, new questions that organizations must answer: • As the nature of application development and operations changes, application security must change with it. How mature is your organization’s approach to new concepts such as continuous integration and deployment? Application containerization? Emerging DevOps toolsets and automation? • In addition to tackling the challenges of internal development, applications are exposed to external interaction in a variety of new ways. From APIs to “serverless” concepts, applications face a wider range of exposures than in the past. Are yours secured? • External application risks go beyond exposure. Today’s applications frequently leverage third party components - from open source to payment processing and other services. Recently, gaps in securing these components have been implicated in breaches and high-profile vulnerabilities. How will your organization address these risks? • Taking on these new challenges will require the best in both technology – making the most of emerging analytics to address scale and complexity – as well as expertise. Is your application security strategy ready for these challenges? Join Scott Crawford, Director of Information Security with 451 Research, and Setu Kulkarni, VP Strategy & Business Development with WhiteHat Security, as they seek to raise awareness of these emerging issues and help organizations chart their course ahead.
