The Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP), founded by Mark Curphey, first released the OWASP Top 10 Web Application Security Risks in 2003. The Top 10 is the closest the development community has to a set of commandments on how to build secure applications. This list represents the most critical risks to software security today and is recognized by developers as the first step toward creating more secure code.

Best practices for securing an AWS environment have been well-documented and generally accepted, such as AWS’s guidance. However, organizations may still find it challenging on how to begin applying this guidance to their specific environments. In this blog series, we’ll analyze anonymized data from Netskope customers that include security settings of 650,000 entities from 1,143 AWS accounts across several hundred organizations.

Early in my career, I developed web applications. At the time there were practically no frameworks or libraries to help. I was coding with Java using raw servlets and JSPs – very primitive by today's standards. There was no OWASP Top 10 and writing secure code was not something we paid much attention to.

The US Government has underlined once again that it continues to strongly discourage organisations hit by ransomware from giving in to extortion demands.

Zero Trust is a security architecture model that requires no implicit trust to be given in any quarter.

As tech budgets start to return to a pre-pandemic state, it will be interesting to see where priorities have shifted to over the past year and a half – especially when it comes to cybersecurity. We’ve taken a look at a few major industry reports to give you an idea of shifting plans, and where cybersecurity sits as a priority in 2022 budgets.

Real estate is just one of many industries that was forced to quickly adapt to an increasingly online-first world in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. Virtual viewings are now the norm, and real estate businesses are scrambling to keep up with how their competitors have changed approach. When looking for a property to buy or rent, we are now likely to search online and look through online listings in the first instance.

A robust dark web monitoring programme ensures organisations have the ability to keep track of hidden risks and prevent any data losses from escalating into major events. In this blog post, we outline how dark web monitoring works, how to maximise its value and what to look for in an outsourced dark web monitoring service.

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.
