Central Security Team Perspective

Accelerate Internal Security Assessments

Whether for external regulatory standards or to comply with internal policies, application security assessments are an essential part of a security professional’s work. However, before Veracode, internal security assessments were expensive, time consuming, and rarely done on more than the most critical applications. Even then they might only be applied to varying degree or on occasion rather than consistently for every release. In fact, the cost, complexity, and time required have regrettably left many applications in large organizations of unknown security quality at any point in time. Veracode transforms your ability to accelerate internal security assessments, enabling you to make them a standard part of every agile or waterfall development project and reach all of the applications your regulatory or internal security policies require.

  • Complete and Automated - Based on breakthrough, automated cloud-based, patented binary code reviews and dynamic web vulnerability scanning, Veracode verifies the security quality of applications within 24-72 hours without requiring source code or expensive, complicated on-premise security testing tools that can make your teams sift through days of false positive results each time they are applied.
  • Accurate and Independent - With a guarantee of fewer than 15% false positives, Veracode provides an unbiased, independent internal application security assessment that enables your team to get to work on real vulnerabilities immediately. In most cases, fewer than 2 additional submissions are required after the first to fully remediate vulnerabilities found by Veracode.
  • Affordable and Simple - Combining cloud-based application risk management services with patented binary code analysis on the final ready-to-deploy application takes the time, complexity, and expense out of internal security assessments. With the same resources you have been using on specialized on premise tools or entirely manual methods you can afford to assess many times more applications than ever before.
  • Integrated and Scalable - As a cloud-based subscription service Veracode integrates easily into any agile or waterfall development methodology without requiring extensive training, time-consuming tuning, or additional hardware or software. At as few or as many points in the lifecycle as you need to conduct internal security assessments and for as many applications as you want to assess, Veracode is ready. Veracode is also extensible, providing application program interfaces (APIs) for customized integration into your lifecycle tools.
