Application Security AssessmentApplication security assessment offers significant protectionKeeping your enterprise safe today requires diligence and innovation. Threats from cyber warfare are constantly evolving. Applications are becoming more complex as enterprises combine internally developed code with commercial off-the-shelf packages, third-party software, and open-source code. To achieve greater cyber security, enterprises need innovative solutions for quickly identifying and fixing vulnerabilities in software. Application security assessment solutions promise to address this need by assessing software for security vulnerabilities before it is purchased or deployed to enterprise customers or consumers. But many application assessment solutions today are either time-consuming, manual operations or tools that are expensive to buy and deploy—and must be constantly maintained in order to stay updated. The impact on productivity and profits can be real and significant. For enterprises seeking a better way to perform application security assessment, Veracode has the answer. Get on-demand, application security assessment with VeracodeVeracode is the first automated, on-demand, application security testing solution that offers an application security assessment solution that provides on-demand testing through an easy-to-use, software-as-a-service delivery model. By outsourcing application assessments to Veracode, organizations have no software or hardware to purchase, install, maintain, or upgrade, and what is achieved is a greater level of security without large capital or operational costs. Additionally, development teams are free to focus on developing software rather than needing to become experts in running software assurance tools. And because Veracode performs both binary analysis (scanning for flaws on compiled "byte" code rather than source code) and dynamic analysis (scanning for flaws in running Web applications), developers get faster and more accurate results and the ability to perform more comprehensive analyses. The combination of binary code analysis and dynamic analysis allows companies to test even third-party software, since access to propriety source code is not necessary. This means that applications throughout the enterprise can be tested, regardless of how or where they were developed—and even in cases when source code is not available. Veracode security assessment accelerates application developmentVeracode's application assessment security solution enables companies to: Speed production. With Veracode, software development can continue or accelerate without delay as large applications can be accurately tested for flaws with results returned within 24 to 72 hours. Veracode's unique "Fix-First Analysis" allows organizations to prioritize risk against business objectives so teams can address the most important flaws first. And developers are freed from software security assessment tasks to spend more time working on what they do best—developing good, functional, and user-friendly software. Improve accuracy. Veracode offers a higher level of accuracy by returning fewer false positives and delivering a more comprehensive analysis. Veracode's world-class team of experts has developed and continually refines our software security testing methodology to achieve assessment accuracy that is unparalleled in the industry. Reduce costs. With no need to invest in hardware, software, or additional security administrators, Veracode helps companies reduce the expense of software assurance. Companies pay only for the amount of testing they require at any given time. And because development teams can spend less time on false positives and more time on serious security concerns, Veracode helps the enterprise optimize its security spending. |
