Up to 90% of software security problems are caused by coding errors, which is why secure coding
standards are essential. There are several secure coding practices you can adopt. But, to write truly
secure code, you need a secure coding standard.
Here, we explain what are secure coding standards and how to...
Organizations are adopting cloud services at a rapid speed, and security incidents are spanning across on-premises, multi-cloud platforms, and many unique or interconnected SaaS Apps. Pair this with Gartner’s prediction that by 2023 “at least 99% of cloud security failures will be the customer’s fault” –...
Vulnerable software and applications are the leading cause of security breaches. Couple this with
the fact that software is proliferating at an accelerated pace, and it’s clear why malicious actors
have zeroed in on this rapidly-expanding attack surface.
Software security must be a top priority going forward....
With the advent of CI/CD pipelines, supply chain attacks have become more prevalent – and as the recent SolarWinds breach has demonstrated, the impact of such breaches can be vast and rippling.
This eBook addresses questions raised by security leaders that want to better understand their organization’s...
The SolarWinds supply chain compromise has raised questions over how to detect software that has been tainted during the vendor's development and build process. A concept called verified reproducible builds could help, says David Wheeler of the Linux Foundation.
Open source software is created by talented software developers from around the world who donate their time and intelligence to create software and components, then provide those free of charge to anyone wishing to
use them under the terms of their licenses (including the Beerware license).
The benefits open source...
To ensure data and services are protected against attack, DevOps is evolving to incorporate
cybersecurity practices across the lifecycle. Organizations need to take into account the fast-moving
nature of continuous innovation, and a rapidly evolving and fragmented threat landscape: otherwise
security can get in the...
Organizations are increasingly turning to containers and Kubernetes to improve the efficiency and scalability of software development efforts. Containers introduce new security issues, highlighting the need for container specific security tools.
Download this whitepaper to learn why organizations must balance the...
Application performance has always been important. Uncertain market conditions and the accelerated shift to digital business have elevated performance to be a top imperative for most organizations. Survey data from industry analyst firm 451 Research indicates that end-users are remarkably sensitive to application and...
Vulnerabilities due to "coding errors" in a number of mobile banking applications make them all too susceptible to hacking and customer account data theft, the security firm Positive Technologies warns.
Containers are shaping the way organizations are developing and managing applications nowadays. However, many are not always fully aware of the measures that need to be taken across the entire software development lifecycle, especially when it comes to open source security aspects. The mindset of securing our...
Robotic process automation aims to use machine learning to create bots that automate high-volume, repeatable tasks. But as organizations tap RPA, they must ensure they take steps to maintain data security, says Deloitte's Ashish Sharma.
Code reuse kills - software quality, that is, according to a new study of C++ code snippets shared on Stack Overflow that were reused in more than 2,800 GitHub projects. But there's help for organizations that want to support their developers' urge to cut and paste prewritten code snippets.
Since at least 2016, hacked websites have targeted zero-day flaws in current versions of Apple iOS to surreptitiously implant data-stealing and location-tracking malware, says Google's Project Zero team. Apple patched the latest vulnerabilities in February.
