Security Testing and Assurance
Application Security and DevSecOps
Embed security within the development lifecycle and empower your teams to design, build and operate secure software.
Application Security and DevSecOps focusses on embedding security into each phase of the software development lifecycle (SDLC).
By utilising appropriate tooling and processes, we can encourage collaboration between Development, Security and Operations teams, make security a shared responsibility, and ensure potential vulnerabilities are discovered and security controls are implemented from inception.
Benefits of Application Security and DevSecOps
Secure by design
Security is considered in the design phase to ensure security controls are implemented from day 1.
Security culture and scalability Content
Cross-functional collaboration enhances developer skillsets and expands security expertise across your organisation.
Early detection and response
Automated security testing provides development teams with the ability to remediate issues early in the development lifecycle.
Increased visibility
Gain continuous visibility and monitor threats, risks and vulnerabilities across the application landscape.
Speed of delivery
Security is embedded into the everyday ways of working. Teams can focus on features and deliver software at speed.
Automation by default
Consumable patterns and automated processes with low cognitive load are used to remove manual bottlenecks.
CyberCX Application Security and DevSecOps framework
CyberCX works with Security, Development and Operations teams to seamlessly integrate security into the software development lifecycle so you can design, build and operate secure software at speed.
