In today's fast-paced software development environment, security can no longer be an afterthought. Product security aims to embed security at every stage of the development lifecycle, and Static Application Security Testing (SAST) plays a crucial role in this process. By scanning source code early in the pipeline, SAST helps developers catch security issues before they reach production.

Since its initial release in January 2020, the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) has undergone a series of fundamental changes. Fortunately, CMMC compliance requirements became much clearer when the US Department of Defense (DoD) published its CMMC Final Rule in October 2024. As a result, CMMC will have an impact on nearly every DoD contractor and subcontractor, and it’s anticipated that references to CMMC will be included in DoD contracts as early as March 2025.

Permissions are at the center of every operation at Egnyte. Every interaction any user has with the system is bound to go through a stringent permission check,be it creating a file, copying it, moving it, sharing it, deleting it or using an operation as simple as adding comments. The permissions model is extremely crucial as without it, data leaks, incorrect access escalations, and unauthorized operations can occur.
