API Security Decoded: Emerging Trends and Effective AppSec Strategies

Security leaders know that securing APIs is vital to protect their businesses. With failures in API security leading to data breaches - Peloton, Experian and even the FBI are among recent household name organisations impacted - API security is in the spotlight more than ever before. 

Yet security leaders also know just how tricky implementing robust API security strategies can be. As innovation steps up and software teams have the tools to develop faster than ever before, undocumented API endpoints frequently make it into production and quietly increase the overall attack surface.  

In this Invicti webinar, experts are coming together to share how, with the right solution and workflows, security leaders can meet these challenges head on. 
Join this webinar to learn: 

- Why API vulnerability testing in modern development pipelines runs into so many challenges 
- Why SDLC integration is the most robust way to systematically cover APIs 
- How advances in AppSec technologies have made it possible to automatically test APIs along with the rest of your web attack surface 
- What best practices you can follow to make API security testing a routine and efficient part of your secure SDLC
- And more

API Vulnerability Testing in the Real World: API Security Testing & Your SDLC

There’s nothing like cold hard data to set the record straight on security.  Each year we analyze the most common web application vulnerabilities across thousands of assets and release the annual Invicti AppSec Indicator report. 
New research reveals how headline-grabbing breaches and pandemic-driven industry changes are influencing scan behavior and broader coverage. 

As part of this webinar, we will share a deep dive into the trends currently impacting AppSec programs and share some of the best practices that will help you achieve efficiencies in your program.
Join Invicti Director of Product, Patrick Vandenberg, as he presents the major web vulnerability trends and important highlights, including: 
The latest insights and trends to guide best practices in vulnerability identification and remediation 
Data that proves organizations can effectively reduce the risk of a breach by increasing web vulnerability scan frequency and expanding application and API scan exposure
How enterprise and SMB organizations successfully improve security posture by shifting their efforts both left and right by continuously scanning for security issues earlier in the software development pipeline and in production

Join this webinar to learn how baking in continuous scanning will help your organization find and fix more high-severity flaws faster and improve overall security posture.

The Invicti AppSec Indicator, Spring 2023: Scan more. Fix more. Reduce risk.

APIs have progressed from being add-ons to a core application to become the fundamental building blocks of modern software architecture. Many companies have had an API security incident in the past 12 months including the recent Optus hack. 
And yet, surprisingly many organizations are still overlooking or not realizing that the API part of the web application attack surface can be covered when planning and executing their AppSec programs. 

Join Invicti Senior AppSec Manager Suha Akyuz as he discusses the practical challenges of API vulnerability testing, technical solutions to overcome them, and best practices to make it all work in a modern web development pipeline. 
You will also learn:
- Why API vulnerability testing in modern development pipelines runs into so many obstacles
- How advances in AppSec technologies have made it possible to automatically test APIs in combination with the rest of your web attack surface, allowing you to save on valuable resources
- What best practices you can follow to make API security testing a routine and efficient part of your secure SDLC

There is no question that APIs are difficult to test. If undocumented API endpoints make it into production, they can quietly increase the overall attack surface, exposing sensitive data and critical functionality directly to attackers. Join the webinar to learn practical ways to make API security a routine part of a successful web application security program.

An Integrated Approach to Scanning APIs with DAST

Generative AI tools such as GitHub Copilot and ChatGPT seem to hold promise for developers looking to write code more efficiently and find quick answers to programming questions. But especially in these early days, carefree reliance on such tools can introduce a range of issues related to software functionality, licensing, and security. Superficially valid suggestions can result in vulnerable code that increases risk and requires additional remediation work down the line. And that’s even before considering the potential for abuse if such tools are used irresponsibly or with malicious intent. 
 
To systematically catch vulnerabilities that AI-generated application code can introduce, your AppSec teams can use techniques like dynamic application security testing (DAST) and software composition analysis (SCA), running automatic checks in the development pipeline. 


The webcast featuring Invicti will examine how DAST and other methods of application security testing and analysis can help to mitigate the security risks associated with AI-generated code. It will also warn viewers of other potential AI dangers that developers should look out for, including:
- Importing AI-suggested libraries that don’t exist (but can be spoofed by malicious actors)
- Privacy concerns surrounding AI engine queries 
- Superficially correct code that introduces business logic vulnerabilities
- Possible code licensing violations 

This webcast has been produced in collaboration with SC Media, Cyber Risk Alliance.

NoSQL security scanning: Finding and remediating MongoDB vulnerabilities

When it comes to application security, identifying and managing all threats can be daunting, but when faced with the possibility of an attack that could derail development or, worse, cause a breach, testing for vulnerabilities both early and often is more than an obvious solution – it’s the specified standard.

With the 44% rise in publicly reported cybersecurity incidents over the past decade and a growing cost per incident between $266,000 and $52 million, organizations know they must introduce more-robust cybersecurity management systems.  


Updated in October 2022, new ISO 27001 requirements redefine application security controls for building a secure SDLC in modern software development environments, with an emphasis on vulnerability scanning.

- Why vulnerability scanning is emphasized in multiple places in the standard, and how to incorporate it as part of the secure SDLC.

New ISO27001 Requirements for a Secure SDLC with Vulnerability Scanning

A panel discussion that has aired initially as part of the Dark Reading Virtual Event, sponsored by Invicti:

Today’s threat landscape calls for a more proactive approach to security, with regular vulnerability scanning and penetration testing of IT infrastructure as well as threat hunting by the security team or your security service provider. How do you set up a vuln scanning and pen testing regimen? What’s the best way to begin and conduct threat hunting? How do you apply the results of these practices to tighten up your defenses? Threat hunting specialists will share intel on how to practice proactive security using these processes as well as emerging technologies that support them.

Getting a Step Ahead of the Attacker with Vulnerability Scanning & Pen Testing

This democast has originally aired on SC Media.

Secure application development can be a painstaking process, but just how painful does DevSecOps actually need to be? 

Companies that are actively engaged in DevSecOps speak of multiple pain points, from struggles with asset visibility and discovery to finding ways to close every gap in their defenses. Along the way, they face an uphill battle to integrate dynamic application security testing (DAST) into their software development life cycle and maintain vulnerability testing coverage across all their application environments – and all this while constantly warding off time-wasting false positives.

Organizations are always looking for ways to ease these security pains and cut down on inefficiencies. One remedy for these ailments is Invicti’s web application security testing platform, which integrates throughout the SDLC to embed automated security testing into application development without hampering the pace of innovation.

 
This democast features a walkthrough of Invicti’s AppSec solution, with detailed commentary explaining how Invicti’s Proof-Based Scanning technology coupled with deep integration into CI/CD workflows provides a tried-and-true remedy for the biggest pain points that plague DevSecOps initiatives today.

2022 AppSec Indicator: Tuning Out the AppSec Noise is All About DAST

Security teams are intensely focused on protecting their organizations, often leading to friction with developers who need to build and produce applications quickly. How can organizations speed up product releases and shorten innovation cycles while also improving security and working in tandem with development? 
To understand how successful organizations do this, we have partnered with Enterprise Strategy Group (ESG), an independent IT analysis, research, and advisory organization, to develop an in-depth white paper: Automated Application Security Testing for Faster Development.   

As part of this webinar, we will present the highlights from this white paper, including: 
- The challenges of securing cloud-native applications
- The case for embedding security testing directly into developer workflows for better coverage
- Ways to turn your security team into enablers instead of blockers
- The Invicti approach to helping you continuously secure all your applications
- How automated AppSec testing saves time and money

Join this webinar to learn how organizations like yours “cover their AST with DAST” by enabling both security and development teams and proactively taking control of the security of their web apps.

Automated Application Security Testing for Faster Development

As the DevOps teams are moving forward at speed to help fast forward business growth, traditional security teams seem to struggle to keep up with a fast pace of innovation, making it unsustainable to maintain a traditional DevOps approach without involving security directly.

Having security as an integral part of development is the only practical approach to modern agile workflows. 
Join Invicti Solutions Engineer Ali Marwani, and learn:
- What is DevSecOps, and why do we need it?
- How to implement DevSecOps
- DevSecOps best practices

Transforming your organization with DevSecOps

This panel discussion has originally appeared as part of the Dark Reading Virtual Event, sponsored by Invicti.

Agile development and continuous integration/continuous deployment have changed the game for application development practices, leading enterprises to “shift left” and build security into the software development lifecycle to catch any vulnerabilities before applications go into production. But what about those existing production applications running in the enterprise? In this webinar, you'll learn how to use modern security practices to manage the detection and remediation of vulnerabilities in those legacy applications. You’ll also get tips for how to help your dev team balance their development demands with the need to secure applications enterprise-wide.
