Create More Secure Software Code: 5 Key Steps

Software security, or rather the lack thereof, has become commonplace and an all too frequently recurring story in print and electronic media around the world. Just a single incident, such as the Target breach, which affected over 100 million people and cost Target an estimated $300 million, has the power to propel the subject of security from the world of IT professionals into the conversations of everyday people. Of course, there have been many incidents, pre- and post-Target. TJ Maxx, P.F. Chang’s, JPMorgan Chase, Snapchat, eBay, Home Depot, Staples... the list goes on and on and includes public, private, and government organizations.

Reduce Your Open Source Security Risk: Strategies, Tactics and Tools

While there’s no doubt that open source software (OSS) is here to stay, that doesn’t mean that developers can feel free to use all and any open source software components with no thought to the vulnerabilities and security issues they may introduce into their development projects. The fact is, there’s no such thing as bulletproof, bug-free, automatically license compliant, and easily auditable software. Not in the open source world and not in the commercial off the shelf (COTS) world.

Application Self-Protection: It’s Time For a New Kind of Defense

With security breaches targeting the application layer more and more, security teams have begun to shift their focus (and budgets) to address this new challenge.

IT organizations are tasked with choosing the right tools for every aspect of a layered defense. This paper, including research data from Gartner, will provide insight into the threat landscape as well as the solutions that best address this ever changing landscape.

Protecting Your APIs Against Attack and Hijack

The best practice for API security architecture is to separate out API implementation and API security into distinct tiers. Under this model, an API developer can focus completely on the application domain, ensuring that each API is well designed and promotes integration between different apps. CA API Gateway provides the API security administrator with complete control over access control, threat detection, confidentiality, integrity and audit across every API the organization publishes.
