SDLC SecurityA cost-effective way to build security into your SDLCSecurity should be a critical aspect of the software development life cycle (SDLC). Effective SDLC security requires organizations to determine the appropriate policies, practices and supporting technologies to build security into their software development lifecycle. This programmatic approach should be designed to ensure that applications are free of flaws that could be exploited for malicious intent, and that they do not lack critical functionality that could leave the enterprise open for attack. As the variety of threats to enterprise security continues to grow, the importance of integrating security practices into the SDLC has never been more critical. Combined with the proper developer training, management buy-in and easy to use security services, enterprises can build security into their development process. Veracode’s SecurityReview offers a cost-effective and comprehensive security verification service that can serve as the technological backbone of an organizations secure software development lifecycle. Verify Applications you Build - Before you ShipVeracode offers a service unique to SDLC security: automated, on-demand, application security testing solutions for analyzing code for security flaws and emerging threats such as backdoors and malicious code. Veracode SecurityReview is the perfect technology to support a secure software development lifecycle — with the ability to scan large volumes of code on-demand, enterprises can use SecurityReview to quickly and efficiently assess security concerns without creating bottlenecks in the SDLC process. Because Veracode is an outsourced solution offered as a Software-as-a-Service model, enterprises need pay only for the amount of code they need to analyze, and there are no costs for purchasing, installing, maintaining, or training on software. To improve accuracy and comprehensiveness in software assessment, SecurityReview combines static, dynamic, and manual testing capabilities and scans code after it has been compiled—at the binary or "byte" code level rather than the source level, as other solutions do. This offers two distinct advantages: One, binary code analysis is more efficient, so vulnerabilities can be found more quickly and with fewer false positives. And two, binary code analysis is the most complete application security testing method because all code can be scanned regardless of origin. Whereas third-party software often presents application security assessment difficulties because of the sensitive nature of reviewing proprietary source code, Veracode allows enterprises to evaluate both internally developed and third-party code, providing the most comprehensive software assessment solution available today.
