App Security
Prioritising robust application security to safeguard your digital assets, our comprehensive solutions combine cutting-edge software, hardware, and techniques to protect your applications from evolving threats.
Today, security is integral to every stage of application development, from planning to deployment, we ensure your applications are fortified against diverse risks.
Our approach embeds security practices in the software development and application lifecycle, minimising vulnerabilities and preventing unauthorised access to your systems and data.
Types Of Application Security
Key Features
Authentication
Procedures put into an application to ensure that only authorised users gain access to it
Authorisation
After authentication, the user may be authorised to access and use the application.
Encryption
After authentication and authorisation, other security measures can be used to protect sensitive data.
Logging
If there is a security breach in an application, logging can help identify who got access to the data and how.
App Security Testing
A necessary process to ensure that all of these security controls work properly.
Fortify Your Business with Robust App Security
Threat Assessment
Having a list of sensitive assets to protect can help you understand the threat your organization is facing and how to mitigate them. Consider what methods a hacker can use to compromise an application, whether existing security measures are in, and if you need additional tools or defensive measures. It is also important to be realistic about your security expectations. Even with the highest level of protection, nothing is impossible to hack.
Prioritise Remediation Ops
Vulnerabilities are growing, and developers find it difficult to address remediation for all issues. Given the scale of the task at hand, prioritisation is critical for teams that want to keep applications safe. Effective prioritisation requires performing a threat assessment based on the severity of the vulnerability—using CVSS ratings and other criteria, such as the operational importance of the affected application.
App Security
Best Practices
Measure Application Security Results
It is important to measure and report the success of your application security program. Identify the metrics that are most important to your key decision makers and present them in an easy-to-understand and actionable way to get buy-in for your program. The main goal is to indicate how the application security program is compliant with internal policies and show the impact in terms of reduction of vulnerabilities and risks and increased application resilience.
Shift Security Left
Companies are transitioning from annual product releases to monthly, weekly, or daily releases. To accommodate this change, security testing must be part of the development cycle, not added as an afterthought. This way, security testing doesn’t get in the way when you release your product.
