DevSecOps and Application Penetration Testing: Defying the Myth
On-demand webcast dives into the role of application penetration testing in today’s software development lifecycle (SDLC).
If you’re not penetration testing, you don’t know what you’re missing.
Organizations are under pressure to develop applications at an ever-faster pace – without sacrificing security. Enter DevSecOps. As the name implies, DevSecOps weaves security into every part of development. With this approach, security is an enabler, not a blocker.
With the emphasis on speed and scale, automation is an important component of DevSecOps. But automated tools don’t cover 100% of your security issues and can lead to false positives that cause problems of their own. On the other hand, penetration testing finds the flaws that automated tools can’t detect. Unfortunately, penetration testing is seen as a bottleneck to development – but it doesn’t have to be.
The solution is to combine automation with penetration testing – but not the traditional approach you’re familiar with. Successful DevSecOps programs require a new breed of penetration testing – one that’s relationship-driven and designed for speed and scale. This webcast explores the world of DevSecOps and how penetration testing is evolving to meet the needs of today’s organizations.
