Code Dx adds software vulnerability correlation, prioritization, and consolidated risk reporting. Today, Synopsys announced the acquisition of Code Dx, the provider of an award-winning application security risk management solution that automates and accelerates the discovery, prioritization, and remediation of software vulnerabilities.
With the rise of cyber attacks on web apps, organizations require AST tools that can help manage web application security and compliance. Remember the saga of Equifax and the unpatched Apache Struts vulnerability? It wasn’t that long ago, and it’s one of the most notorious web application security incidents to date.
Today, we are proud to announce the expansion of the partnership between Synopsys and the OpenChain project to include third-party certification. The OpenChain Project already recognizes the open source expertise of Synopsys in both the service provider and vendor space. This latest recognition ensures that Synopsys participates in and continuously aligns to the OpenChain Project and ISO/IEC 5230 compliance specification.
5G introduces security concerns but threat modeling can help you make better informed decisions about your application security risks. 5G is fundamentally different from 4G, LTE, or any other network the telecommunications industry has ever seen before. It promises data rates 100 times faster than 4G, network latency of under 1 millisecond, support for 1 million devices/sq. km., and 99.999% availability of the network.
Security and speed in software development are not mutually exclusive. Red Hat, the open source software giant, and the Synopsys Software Integrity Group are joining forces to prove it. Synopsys is bringing Seeker®, its automated interactive application security testing (IAST) tool, to Red Hat application runtimes like JBoss EAP, OpenJDK, and WebSphere with OpenShift Container Platform to secure a variety of software applications.
As companies become more digitized, they must take appropriate steps in their application security processes to ensure data protection. The SolarWinds software supply chain attack, which was delivered to over 18,000 customers via the company’s own software update process, was the result of malicious code deployed in SolarWinds’ Orion network monitoring software.
Fragmentation and aggregation attacks (FragAttacks) are WLAN vulnerabilities discovered by Mathy Vanhoef, who created this webpage to provide more information about them. Three of these vulnerabilities are 802.11 specification design flaws, and they are probably as old as the 802.11 specification itself. Aggregation was added in 802.11n, which means this vulnerability has been in the design for over 10 years. Nine of these vulnerabilities are implementation flaws.
AST solutions provide insights to help organizations make more-informed decisions about their security investments. By now, everybody is familiar with the fundamental value of using application security testing (AST) solutions. You do security testing as part of a secure software development life cycle, you find security bugs, you fix them, and the software you release has a lower risk of being compromised, interrupted, or otherwise abused by attackers.
Synopsys’s world-class application security products, services, and the recently released Intelligent Orchestration can help you build secure, high-quality, resilient software faster. But no single vendor can provide solutions for all the challenges a company faces today. Firms need partners to solve the myriad business challenges they face. Synopsys Technology Alliance Partner program partners with the technology industry’s leading organizations to create joint customer value.
As the use of open source has grown, so has the number of vulnerabilities. Uncover the latest findings from the 2021 OSSRA report. Open source libraries are the foundation for every application in every industry. But paralleling the popularity of open source is a growth in risk—specifically around open source licensing, security, code quality, and especially open source sustainability.
