Synopsys Cybersecurity Research Center discovers new RCE vulnerability that can leave Pluck Content Management System vulnerable.

Production-safe DAST with WhiteHat Dynamic enables critical security scans in the software production environment. Software powers modern businesses, but these ever-evolving applications and systems can also include vulnerabilities that threat actors can exploit to disrupt, threaten, and steal critical data. But fear not: Robust security processes can mitigate most of these risks and ensure that new features and updates are properly tested.

Tools like Code Dx that support automation are the answer to faster software development delivery cadence. Automation is a key component of the secure DevOps, or DevSecOps, approach. Automation is how organizations establish security gates, and it can be used to prioritize findings and triage their remediation response.

Synopsys has struck gold in not one but THREE categories at the 2023 Cybersecurity Excellence Awards. The Cybersecurity Excellence Awards honor individuals and companies that demonstrate excellence, innovation, and leadership in information security. We are thrilled to have been awarded the top recognition in these categories.

Listed as #4 on the OWASP Top 10 list, insecure design is a new category added in 2021 and is related to design and architectural flaws in web apps. Insecure design is a new category in the OWASP Top 10 in 2021. Listed at #4, it is a broad category related to critical design and architectural flaws in web applications that hackers can exploit. Insecure designs can’t be fixed by a perfect implementation. They require security controls to mitigate the threats.

Application Security Orchestration and Correlation uses processes and automation to help accelerate vulnerability testing and mitigation. In 2022, Synopsys commissioned the SANS Institute to investigate how firms are aligning their development, security, and operations teams with the organizational values, practices, and tools that compose the secure DevOps, or DevSecOps, approach.

Static analysis + penetration testing delivers a powerful punch in any software due-diligence effort. In the world of tech merger and acquisition (M&A) transactions, timing is everything. It’s important for prospective buyers and investors to understand as much of the target’s software assets’ security, quality, and legal posture as possible in a brief amount of time. This drives the need to conduct multiple assessments on a target’s code simultaneously.

Targeted software security practices can help overcome challenges in satisfying emerging cybersecurity standards in the automotive industry. In the automotive industry today, software-defined vehicles (SDVs), electric vehicles (EVs), and connected and autonomous vehicles are becoming increasingly popular.

Intelligent Orchestration takes the complexity out of DevSecOps by delivering the right tests, at the right time, to the right people. The modern software development life cycle is characterized by rapid DevOps workflows and CI/CD pipelines. Facebook delivers between 50,000 and 60,000 Android builds each day. Amazon reportedly deploys new software to production every second, and the Netflix DevOps team deploys new releases 100 times each day.

Listed as #3 on the OWASP Top 10 list, injection occurs when an attacker sends malicious data to an app to make it do something it’s not supposed to do. Check out the OWASP Top 10 video series.

Reduce complexity, increase scalability, and improve cost-efficiency while providing absolute coverage with DAST solution WhiteHat Dynamic. Despite the proliferation of application security testing (AST) tools in use today, most organizations knowingly or unknowingly push vulnerable code to production.
