Harnessing Exploitability Information for Effective Prioritization

Today’s threat landscape is increasingly unmanageable for many companies as they struggle with an application security approach built to react rather than take charge. 
Take one example: vulnerability alerts. A reactive program is built to scan and alert, often overwhelming DevSecOps teams with red flags that are often false positives. Not only do real alerts get lost in the noise, but teams often have no way to prioritize the highest-risk flaws.  

Taking charge of the process requires an aligned approach that leverages agile learning techniques and SAST programs. This equips developers with the tools they need to eliminate vulnerable code writing and mitigate future risks. 

Join our interactive panel of experts to learn take-charge tactics, including the following: 
* Managing risk through a repo-centric SAST approach
* Innovative techniques to distill noise into actionable priorities aligned with business goals.
* Secure code training programs that deliver quantifiable value by integrating with SAST and training content

Don't miss out on the opportunity to cultivate a mindset for enhancing your application security.

Taking charge of vulnerability alerts

In 2023, 71% of enterprises admitted their AppSec programs were reactive, playing catch-up with vulnerability alerts -– while at the same time, applications remain the top target for threat ctors. That adds up to increased business risk for a lot of companies and fuels an urgent need to improve application security strategies. But how?

The key is to move from a compliance-based approach to managing application risk. 

Join Chris Lindsey, Application Security Evangelist, for an in-depth discussion of what it takes to stop playing defense when it comes to application security. He'll wrangle over topics like:
* The tell-tale signs of reactive mode 
* The value of preventative best practices 
* How to build security actions into the developer experience
* The need for a holistic view and effective prioritization 
* Arming the security team with instant control at scale

Malicious packages are a growing threat, and they may already have infiltrated your applications. Like any malware, malicious packages can inflict significant damage.

Malicious Packages Special Report Overview

Software supply chain threats and increasing regulatory pressures make supply chain security a top priority for software organizations. While building secure applications is a must for any organization, the path to creating secure software is anything but clear. Software bills of materials (SBOMs) have emerged as an essential  tool and a roadmap for organizations on their secure software journey.

While most of today’s SBOM efforts revolve around tracking software components, versions and licenses, as SBOM technologies and regulations evolve, organizations should be ready to capitalize on new SBOM-related opportunities. Organizations should start building strategies to leverage SBOM data through a process that identifies applications, creates SBOMs and makes them available for the business to deliver repeatable and ongoing value.

- How to create a sustainable software supply chain security strategy,
- How to identify processes and tools for creating SBOMs
- Automating SBOM creation as part of DevOps and application security workflows,
- Keeping up with the latest advances in SBOMs, application and software supply chain security.

SBOMs: A Roadmap for a Secure Software Journey

The ongoing rise in cyberattacks across the software supply chain and a shifting regulatory landscape are forging an unlikely alliance between CISOs, software leaders and legal experts. Privacy, the shifting and diverse regulatory landscape, liability and new AI/ML use cases all present unique challenges and opportunities for risk management, but to best navigate these challenges, legal teams must be involved, too. Why? Because today, software vulnerabilities can represent not just a business risk but a legal risk.

During this live panel roundtable, experts from security, software and legal disciplines discuss some of the top cyberlaw and legal topics affecting software supply chain security, including:
    -  The impact of shifting liability for insecure software onto software developers and away from consumers as proposed in the National Cybersecurity Strategy
    -  How these changes will affect the open source community
    -  Managing open source license risk
    -  The increasing need for technical due diligence in M & A activity
    -  Ensuring the security of third-party software supply chains

Strange Bedfellows: Software, Security and the Law

But what if they can do both at the same time? Forward-leaning AppSec programs are finding smart ways to reduce security debt by instituting a strategic approach to managing security vulnerabilities. This approach starts by reducing the attack surface early on and throughout development.

In this webinar, you will learn the following:
- How to automate dependency management so that it runs on autopilot
- Why you should assign a confidence level to updates
- How to mass-update group dependencies given a high confidence rating
- How to prioritize vulnerability remediation and update within the repo

Two Birds, One Stone: Shrinking Security Debt and Attack Surfaces

Security is an increasingly critical aspect of application development. As the volume of applications rapidly expands, so does the volume of source code, components, and dependencies used to create them. With them comes a growth in the potential attack surface and an escalation in the variety of threats to your application security.

Mend.io CEO Rami Sass, Jeff Martin, VP of product management, and CMO Arabella Hallawell recently sat down for a panel discussion on AppSec today to discuss the growing significance of AppSec, why traditional approaches fall short, and how to create a modern, effective AppSec program.

The Importance of Adopting Modern AppSec Practices

Threat actors are after our sensitive data. In 2023, the number of malicious packages published to Node Package Manager (npm) and RubyGems ballooned 315% compared to 2021, and 85% of malicious packages discovered in existing applications were capable of exfiltration – meaning they could cause an unauthorized transmission of information. Software packages containing malicious code are a growing threat, and they may have unknowingly infiltrated your applications.
Join VP of Product Management, Jeff Martin and Principal Product Architect, Maciej Mensfeld as they dig into the findings from the Mend Malicious Packages Special Report and discuss how  Mend.io’s 360-degree malicious package protection can help defend against this insidious threat.

Malicious Packages Special Report: Attacks Move Beyond Vulnerabilities

Open source adoption continues to rise, comprising between 60% and 80% of the average application codebase. Open source offers great benefits, but also introduce unique challenges which require dedicated tools to keep up with inventory, detect open source vulnerabilities and ensure license compliance.
