Cyber Security

Cyber security is a critical enterprise priority

Evolving threats against enterprise IT have made cyber security more important than ever. The major focus of cyber security today must be on the application, where the majority of attacks are directed. Malicious code, application backdoors, and lack of security functionality are among the problems that enterprises must address. Yet cyber security is increasingly difficult as applications become more complex. Software today is frequently built from a variety of components from different sources—third-party libraries, offshore vendors, and commercial off-the-shelf packages, as well as code developed by internal teams. Threats embedded in any of these components are difficult to find, and in components where source code is unavailable, traditional application security tools are nearly obsolete. That's why Veracode has introduced a new approach to cyber security—on-demand binary analysis for highly effective and cost-efficient application security review.

Improve cyber security with on-demand application testing

Veracode SecurityReview® is an automated, on-demand, application security testing solution that makes comprehensive cyber security for applications simpler and more cost-effective. SecurityReview is built on a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) model—enterprises need not purchase hardware or software, train personnel, or spend lots of resources to keep it all up-to-date. With SecurityReview, enterprises can submit code at any time and get results within 24 to 72 hours. Veracode's flexibility and ease of implementation allow the enterprise to scale application security assurance quickly and easily meet the demands of cyber security in software development and procurement.

Veracode's approach to static analysis solves the difficulty of scanning applications built from multiple sources. SecurityReview scans software at the binary level, reviewing compiled or "byte" code instead of source code. This allows enterprises to scan entire applications. Where other products are simply unable to review parts of applications where source is unavailable for practical or proprietary reasons, Veracode provides 100 percent code coverage. And because it also includes dynamic testing and manual penetration testing, SecurityReview delivers more comprehensive and more accurate test results.

Enhance application security by preventing cyber warfare

To combat cyber threats, Veracode scans for a variety of malicious code as well as for programming errors such as lack of functionality that may inadvertently compromise enterprise security. As an on-demand service, Veracode can quickly be integrated into development testing cycles and procurement approval processes, delivering superior software assurance and letting developers and purchasers focus on their core competencies instead of having to become software security experts as well.
