About this talk

Join Andrew Kanikuru - Senior Digital Sales @ Veracode & Nabil Bousselham - Principal Consultant Solutions Architect @ Veracode - to discuss how fine the line is between a blessing and a curse in terms of Open Source Code Security.   In the technologically advanced era that we live in, organisations rely on fast software delivery to gain the competitive advantage. Using open source and 3rd party components in the SDLC can help companies be first to market with new services and solutions. When you consider that almost 93% of organisations use external snippets of code during development, not only is this now the norm but it is fast becoming best practice.   But what about the risks?   Although using Open Source code allows fast deployment, faster doesn’t always mean better. As the origin of the code is unknown it means it is unsecure. The largest data breach in history occurred due to an exploitation in Open Source Code, leading to huge financial payouts.   Fast & Secure -  how does an organisation juggle these positive outcomes to best enable themselves to get to market quickly and safely?   Join our live webinar on the 25th of July to find out how.
