WHY
Security was once an afterthought in software design. Today, it’s an increasingly critical concern for every aspect of application development, from planning through deployment and beyond. On average, it costs approximately 90 times more to fix an application security issue in-production stage compared to the early software development lifecycle. Applications are one of the most common targets for cyberattacks. Vulnerabilities in applications can be exploited by attackers to gain access to sensitive data or disrupt business operations. Application security is essential to safeguard against these threats and ensure secure operations.
WHAT
Application security involves implementing various security controls to protect against application-based threats. This includes conducting secure design, code reviews, quality assurance, regular vulnerability assessments and penetration testing to identify and remediate any potential weakness.
HOW
We help organizations to implement appropriate application security controls from the early stage of application design, SAST (static code assessment), DAST (dynamic build assessment) to protect applications against any vulnerabilities. Besides this, we conduct regular vulnerability assessments and penetration testing to identify and remediate known vulnerabilities within the applications. Our advisory services include training of employees on secure coding practices, and help organizations implement secure coding standards to ensure that applications are built with security in mind by minimizing the gap between security and application development teams using the Shift-Left approach.
