Veracode has recently introduced a new feature called Dynamic Analysis MFA, which provides automated support for multi-factor authentication (MFA) setups during dynamic analysis scans. This eliminates the need for you to disable or manually support your MFA configurations when conducting security testing.
One of the top security concerns we hear from technology leaders is about the security of open source software (OSS) and cloud software development. An open source vulnerability scanner (for scanning OSS) helps you discover risk in the third-party code you use. However, just because a solution scans open source does not mean you are ultimately reducing security risk with it.
In this first in a series of articles looking at how to remediate common flaws using Veracode Fix – Veracode’s AI security remediation assistant, we will look at finding and fixing one of the most common and persistent flaw types – an SQL injection attack. An SQL injection attack is a malicious exploit where an attacker injects unauthorized SQL code into input fields of a web application, aiming to manipulate the application's database.
As 2023 comes to a close, we aim to inspire excellence by highlighting our customers’ dedication to a more secure world. Thanks to you, we are honored to be (for the fourth consecutive year) recognized as a 2023 Gartner® Peer Insights™ Customers’ Choice. Let’s explore some of the stories that make this recognition possible.
In the fast-paced world of software development, too often security takes a backseat to meeting strict deadlines and delivering new features. Discovering software has accrued substantial security debt that will take months to fix can rip up the schedules of even the best development teams. An AI-powered tool that assists developers in remediating flaws becomes an invaluable asset in this context.
The landscape of coding is changing as developers embrace AI, automation, microservices, and third-party libraries to boost productivity. While each new approach enhances efficiency, like a double-edged sword, flaws and vulnerabilities are also introduced faster than teams can fix them. Learn about one of the latest innovations solving this in a recap of what our security experts discussed at AWS re:Invent 2023.
December 9 marks two years since the world went on high alert because of what was deemed one of the most critical zero-day vulnerabilities ever: Log4Shell. The vulnerability that carried the highest possible severity rating (10.0) was in Apache Log4j, an ubiquitous Java logging framework that Veracode estimated at the time was used in 88 percent of organizations.
DevSecOps, or secure DevOps, is the mindset in software development that everyone is responsible for application security. By integrating developers with IT operations and focusing everyone on making better security decisions, development teams can deliver safer software with greater speed and efficiency. In practice, DevSecOps can add some friction and hinder the development process.
DevSecOps, also known as secure DevOps, represents a mindset in software development that holds everyone accountable for application security. By fostering collaboration between developers and IT operations and directing collective efforts towards better security decision-making, development teams can deliver safer software with greater speed and efficiency. Despite its merits, implementing DevSecOps can introduce friction into the development process.
Stepping in 2024, the dynamics of open source vulnerability management are shifting. Rapid changes to software development demand a more nuanced approach to open source security from practitioners. From redefining risk to the cautious integration of auto-remediation, here are the pivotal recommendations for successful open source vulnerability management in 2024 and beyond.
