What You’ll Learn in This Webinar
Application security is under the microscope as data breaches brought on by insecure apps increasingly dominate the headlines. In fact, recent research revealed that more than 40% of applications are actively leaking information and pose a risk of exposing sensitive data. The need to shift security left in the application development life cycle is growing critical, as traditional application security testing can’t keep pace with the speed and velocity of application development. In this webinar, we’ll explore the ways appsec is evolving from a point-in-time process in production to an early and continuous step in the DevOps toolchain.
Among the topics to be discussed:
- How DevSecOps is changing application security
- The impact of open source, cloud-native and infrastructure as code on appsec
- Digital transformation API security
- DAST, SAST and FAST – what’s the difference?
