Application Security
Increase your security one app at a time
The thought of securing every one of your organization’s applications can be daunting. Where do you start? How do you proceed?
Whether you are grappling with where to begin, or in utter panic due to a breach, you need to mobilize.
There is an increasing threat to your organization, so don’t wait. Be proactive with your application security.
Assess, then address issues before they become your biggest problems.
Develop a strategic plan that’s grounded in compliance and industry best practices.
- Every organization has dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of applications that they run on, so the first step is to categorize the current application portfolio.
- The second step is to prioritize those apps and secure them based on how business critical they are.
- As preliminary measures, many gate their environment with a web application firewall and shore up the perimeter. That’s a solid defense but still exposed is the valuable area that hackers and organized crime groups target — the application level.
- At this point, security-conscious or breached organizations implement a source code analysis solution like Ounce. Vulnerabilities and threat exposure are quickly identified, prioritized and remediation begins on the most glaring deficiencies and vulnerabilities.
The only way to look at an application and understand it is to go through it line by line. The only way to do that efficiently is with automated source code analysis that pinpoints where you are most at risk. There are clear-cut security issues that Ounce can find — and it does it, fast (and we’ve never found an app with no vulnerabilities).
