Security is the result of implementing the tools, personnel, and insight necessary to make informed decisions to mitigate risks within the software you create and the assets you consume through the software supply chain. While this process can be elaborate, rapid releases and CI/CD methodologies require that AppSec move at the speed of DevOps.

Achieving this is only possible with integrated controls and mechanisms to detect, prioritize, and address security issues at every stage in the SDLC and CI/CD pipelines. But how do you get there?

Join us as we recommend ways to establish security within DevOps without sacrificing efficiency. We’ll discuss:
- Pitfalls that can derail an organization’s AppSec initiative
- Strategies for overcoming obstacles to efficient, effective DevSecOps
- Recommendations for realizing integrated DevSecOps at scale

Security at Every Stage: Integrating AppSec for Efficient DevSecOps

Securing today's applications requires a new approach.

You need to deliver new applications and API’s, fast. Unfortunately, this “need for speed” can lead to vulnerabilities in software code. Once discovered in production, so begins the process by which SecOps and DevOps work to fix the vulnerabilities in runtime applications.  Unfortunately, SecOps and DevOps teams have historically operated independently, establishing their own processes, tools and KPI’s which can create roadblocks.

For an organization to truly develop and deploy secure applications, they need to move beyond traditional methodologies and adopt a new approach – one that bridges the gap between security operations and development.

Join us as we discuss how the Modern AppSec Framework delivers a functional plan your organizations can use to develop and deliver secure applications, regardless of where you are in your security or application development journey.

Register now to learn how the Modern AppSec Framework can take your application security program to the next level.

A Modern Approach to Application Security

Despite significant investment in AppSec tooling, staffing, and maintenance, organizations are unable to adequately secure their software. There is a lot of complexity in managing disparate tools, and not having the means to make testing well integrated or repeatable makes it difficult to get an accurate picture of software risk posture. At large, these factors downgrade the value of AppSec programs.

To achieve AppSec efficacy, security leaders need a way to standardize testing, triage, and remediation processes, all while continuously assessing software compliance, regardless of where source code resides or how it was built. This is where an Application Security Posture Management (ASPM) solution comes in.

In this session, you will:
- Understand how ASPM can help with issue identification, triage, and software compliance, from IDE to runtime testing
- Learn tactics to standardize issue detection, prioritization, and risk assessment through a centralized policy
- Discover how ASPM can help maximize the value of your existing AppSec investments and drive software resiliency at scale

A Practical Guide to Scaling AppSec with ASPM

The proliferation of software across every industry poses significant challenges for teams that must both keep up with the fast pace of innovation and ensure that the software they build is secure. This has led to security tool sprawl, unnecessary complexity, increased operational costs and in many cases, a decreased ability to quickly assess risk. As a result, many organizations are looking to consolidate the number of security tools and vendors they manage to improve resource efficiency and overall risk posture.
 
In this webinar, we will discuss the key things necessary to capitalize on consolidation initiatives beyond a simple reduction of tools, and provide a roadmap for how organizations can realize these benefits rapidly.
