Fostering DevSecOps: Tool orchestration enables AppSec to keep pace with DevOps

Learn how tool orchestration empowers AppSec to keep pace with DevOps, providing a union of security and speed. Many organizations have advanced from the DevOps methodology to DevSecOps, and it is expected this trend will continue throughout 2020 as more enterprises leverage the cloud. A DevSecOps approach promotes collaboration between software application development teams and application security teams.

Application security testing is important-now can you quickly use the results?

Multiple AppSec tools lead to many results. Let Code Dx centralize your AppSec management to help you make sense of your data. Most organizations have more than one application—some large enterprises have hundreds or thousands of applications in development and production. Each application is constantly updated to fix security issues, improve performance, and meet new customer demands, and an essential part of the update process is to test the application for security issues.

Integrating static analysis tools with build servers for continuous assurance

Learn how to set up continuous assurance with Code Dx to improve code quality and security at the speed of DevOps. Continuous integration (CI) has made a tremendous impact on how we develop software. The concept is simple: fail fast and fail often. This allows the team to fix problems before they become a big deal, saving time and money.
