These are the demands driving application development today as the cloud delivers exciting opportunities to create and deploy advanced software at a previously unimaginable pace.
Fiercely competitive markets demand continuous improvement in dynamic, advanced applications providing new features, critical data insights, and exceptional user experience, yet along with functionality, code security risks have also grown exponentially. Attack surfaces have expanded, and the criticality of applications, together with the data they handle, make them a prime target for disruption, infiltration, and exploitation.
Cybercriminals are deploying persistent, sophisticated attacks through multiple vectors in a bid to capitalize on software vulnerabilities. IaC errors, for example, are the second most common breach source according to Verizon’s 2020 Data Breach Investigations Report. Gartner predicts that APIs will account for 90% of an application’s attack surface by 2021. DevSecOps programs need to not only keep up, they need to get ahead of the attack vector curve.
This eBook examines:
Challenges of embedding security into cloud DevOps
Solutions that deliver security across applications that scale at the pace of AWS cloud-native development
AWS DevOps solutions and the application security testing solutions that can be leveraged within them
AWS cloud-native modern application development helps teams work smarter, faster, and more securely, but organizations need a streamlined AppSec approach that can scale with them in cloud environments.
