On December 9th, 2021, the Remote Code Execution (RCE) CVE-2021-44228 in Apache log4j 2 was published and started seeing active exploitation soon after. Since then, development teams have been working hard and tirelessly, trying to fix the issue to prevent (further) damage.

CI Fuzz is a platform for automated security testing that aims to enable developers to ship secure software fast. The platform empowers development teams to automatically deploy continuous REST API security tests with each pull request. Since it enables the instrumentation of entire web service environments, CI Fuzz can create test inputs that are guided by code coverage. This enables it to uncover complex vulnerabilities and edge cases that other tools often overlook.

For obvious reasons, civilian aerospace is steeped in safety regulations. Long-standing international governing bodies mandate and oversee the specification, design, and implementation of civil avionics such that failure conditions that could lead to safety hazards are identifiable, assessed, and mitigated.

Snyk Code is the static application security testing (SAST) solution from Snyk, and it introduces some revolutionary technologies into the SAST space. It is based on the research and technologies developed by a spin-off from the ETH (Zurich/Switzerland), DeepCode which joined Snyk at the end of 2020.

DevSecOps means countering threats at all stages of creating a software product. The DevSecOps process is impossible without securing the source code. In this article, I would like to talk about Static Application Security Testing (SAST). As development fluency is growing every year, many companies are introducing DevSecOps. Its main message calls for ensuring continuous safety control at every stage of product creation. At the same time, DevSecOps processes are automated as much as possible.
