Application Security Advisory Services

 

Identify People, Processes and Technology That Can Accelerate Your AppSec Program

Unseen Application Vulnerabilities Might Be Costing You

Even as software vulnerabilities grow in popularity as attack vectors, businesses struggle to secure their applications. Newer and more complex apps are released every day – web apps, mobile apps, client-server apps – making it that much harder to find and fix the growing volume of vulnerabilities.
 
 
Yet, many organizations lack a formal application security program and do little more than the occasional scan of their software to secure their growing application environment. Even with the best scanning tools, it’s not enough to prevent expensive breaches or steep fines and costly litigation from non-compliance.
 
Optiv can help. Our application security experts meet you where you are to understand your current AppSec program, development practices and the effectiveness of your software development lifecycle (SDLC) frameworks so we can design a holistic application security program together. Then, working with your AppSec stakeholders, we’ll identify people, processes or technology that can be effectively deployed, create a secure baseline and chart a maturity roadmap customized for your organization’s unique requirements.

The Open Worldwide Application Security Project (OWASP)

Optiv is a proud supporter of The Open Worldwide Application Security Project (OWASP) which is a nonprofit foundation that works to improve the security of software. Being a SAMM (Software Assurance Maturity Model) Practitioner in Application Security Assessments is of utmost importance in today's rapidly evolving digital landscape. As cyber threats continue to grow in sophistication and frequency, organizations are increasingly reliant on software applications for critical operations, making them susceptible to potential vulnerabilities and attacks.

 

A SAMM Practitioner possesses specialized skills and knowledge in assessing and improving the security posture of these applications. By applying SAMM principles, they can systematically evaluate an organization's software security practices, identify weaknesses, and implement comprehensive security measures. This proactive approach ensures that potential security risks are addressed at each stage of the software development lifecycle, from design and coding to testing and deployment.

 

Ultimately, being a SAMM Practitioner enables professionals to play a pivotal role in safeguarding sensitive data, protecting against cyber threats, and ensuring the resilience and reliability of applications, thus contributing significantly to an organization's overall security and reputation.
