Outpost24 Introduces Application Security Expert Service to Eliminate False Positives
Philadelphia, PA, 30th April – Outpost24, a leading provider of cyber risk management and threat intelligence solutions, is pleased to announce the launch of our bespoke application security service, DAST Expert. With this innovative offering, organizations gain access to in-depth analysis of application security scanning results, eliminating false positives and enabling you to prioritize remediation efforts more effectively.
Continuous web application security testing is crucial to maintaining strong cyber resilience, however the problem faced by many security professionals is that automated scanning tools can indicate risk when there is no risk. The issue of false positives is an industry wide problem, and the lack of quantified data and peer reviewed analysis can cause significant roadblocks for security teams and creates challenges when making decisions about which risks to tackle first.
False positives not only result in legitimate vulnerabilities being overlooked due to their sheer volume but also consume valuable time and resources as teams must manually sort through them to identify true vulnerabilities. Our new Expert service aims to reduce the noise generated by automated vulnerability scanning, fostering collaboration between security and development teams to accurately label and address critical vulnerabilities.
“With Outpost24’s new DAST Expert service we provide qualitative and actionable results enabling organizations to prioritize their remediation efforts and drive efficiency, saving money and valuable resources” stated Brendan Hogan, Chief Strategy Officer at Outpost24.
According to Gartner by 2025, 50% of cybersecurity leaders will have tried, unsuccessfully, to use cyber risk quantification and only 36% have achieved action based results, including reducing risk and saving money. Our expert pen testers work closely with development and security teams to identify potential threats, along with providing specialist guidance on fixes to ensure vulnerabilities are genuinely resolved.
The Outpost24 team of highly qualified ethical hackers harness their certified skills, proven expertise, and deep knowledge to deliver trusted results and recommended remediations of the highest quality.
Don’t compromise on the security of your web applications. Trust Outpost24’s DAST Expert service to enhance your application security, all while saving valuable time and resources.
