Application Security

Ensure that your applications are safe, detect and neutralise any arising threats.
What is Application Security?

An overview

Application security is a process where a business will evaluate their applications, identifying flaws in the security of their apps. This often occurs naturally during the development phase of the application, however often hacking technology and techniques will evolve leaving potential vulnerabilities in the applications.

The quicker that the fixes can be identified in the software development process the safer your business will be. If issues are not resolved this can lead to must larger issue, which could involve exposing data, or alternatively taking the application down.

How Application Security Is Important?

An overview

Application Security seeks to combine multiple layers of defences over the application.

In a recent survey 83% of the 85k apps that were tested had a least one security weakness, with many having multiple flaws. In total 10 million flaws were identified and 20% of all apps had one high risk flaw. To be clear not all of the flaws that were identified present a security risk, but nevertheless the volume of flaws is obviously troubling.

Static Analysis

Static Analysis is the process of evaluating an applications code as it being developed, this analysis is called statis application security testing or SAST.

Dynamic Analysis

Once an application is live Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) enables the detection of a wide variety of different types of security vulnerabilities.

Interactive Application Security Testing​

Interactive Application Security Testing

Interactive Application Security Testing combines both Static Analysis (SAST) and Dynamic Analysis (DAST) using Interactive Application Security Testing (IAS).

Software Composition Analysis

Software Composition Analysis (SCA) explores potential configuration and explores software dependency and library issues with applications.
