Software VulnerabilityNeed a software vulnerability solution?A software vulnerability can cause great damage to your company's productivity, credibility, and bottom line. Most malicious attacks today are directed at applications—backdoors, malicious code, even lack of security functionality can allow attackers unauthorized access to confidential information about customers and the organization. To address software vulnerability issues, companies must perform security testing on all applications to be purchased or deployed. But testing technology has not been a perfect solution—it can be expensive to purchase, install, learn, and upgrade, and it can be very inaccurate, leaving developers and security administrators chasing down dead ends and false positives while missing truly dangerous instances of software vulnerability. For a solution that is comprehensive, accurate, and extremely cost-effective, more enterprises today turn to SecurityReview® from Veracode. Veracode provides innovative software vulnerability scanningVeracode SecurityReview® represents a significant innovation in software vulnerability testing—an on-demand, automated, application testing solution. As an on-demand service, Veracode allows companies to avoid the purchase of expensive application security assessment software or hardware and all of the additional costs in installation, training, and upgrading that come with it. Companies can use an online analysis platform to submit code to SecurityReview and get results within 24 to 72 hours. And those results will be the most accurate in the industry, catching more software security vulnerability problems than any other solution. SecurityReview combines multiple testing techniques including static analysis, dynamic application security testing, and manual penetration testing. In an industry first, Veracode's static code analysis uses binary analysis to scan for security vulnerabilities. While other products scan code at the source code level; Veracode's solution scans binary code (compiled or "byte" code). Because applications today are frequently a hybrid or "mashup" of application components, source code is often not available for review. It may be withheld as intellectual property, as with commercial software, or it may not be practical to scan it, as with third-party libraries and reusable binary components. With Veracode, this presents no obstacle. Veracode's binary vulnerability analysis can still scan 100 percent of the application code, delivering the most comprehensive testing available today. On-demand vulnerability scanning helps speed software purchase and developmentWith Veracode, companies can accelerate software development and procurement timelines. Veracode's flexible on-demand service can be quickly and easily integrated into any development life cycle and procurement process. Disbursed teams of developers and purchasers can use Veracode as a single point of collaboration. And because Veracode returns quick results prioritized based on risk levels, developers can optimize their time to fix the most serious flaws first. |
