Secure SDLC - Why early security matters?

E-Book

This e-book explores the benefits of early security in SDLC for applications, risks of waiting until later, and practical strategies for integrated security as part of SDLC.

Fast & Curious: Is Your Code Racing Past Security?

Webinar

Watch this punchy on-demand session where we revealed how Application Security as a Service is helping high-velocity teams catch real vulnerabilities early—without slowing their SDLC or growing their headcount.

The challenge is daunting. The solution is EASy

Solution Brief

Organizations often struggle to embed security into fast-paced development processes. Traditional methods create bottlenecks, delay delivery, and result in costly late-stage remediations. EASy (Enhanced Application Security) is a comprehensive managed service from Cypress Data Defense that integrates seamlessly into your Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC), automating security processes while ensuring compliance.

“Securing Your SDLC: The EASy Way” - How Cypress Data Defense Is Revolutionizing Application Security - Hosted by CyberEdge

Webinar

In this exclusive session, our experts, Aaron Cure and Steve Kosten, discuss the biggest security challenges in modern software development and how to proactively secure applications early in the SDLC—without disrupting workflows.

Authentication vs. Authorization - What is the Difference?

Report

Today there is a shortage of qualified software security engineers. This is alarming given the increase in sophisticated cyber-attacks on businesses, end-users, and software applications. Take your team’s security practices to the next level by turning your software engineers into security champions. What if your team was equipped with the know-how to ensure code is secure and functional from the very first phase of software development? This can mitigate future threats, decrease risks, stop data breaches from occurring, and prevent costly lawsuits often resulting from a breach.

Top Reasons to Turn Your Team of Developers Into Security Champions

Report

Often times, the terms “authentication” and “authorization” are confusing for non-security persons. This presentation clarifies the difference of the two, and provides real-world examples as to how they are used. Take a few minutes out of your day to understand ideas such as the four factors of authentication, different types of authorizations, and different ways to perform each.

Open Web Application Security Project – OWASP Top 10 Vulnerabilities

report

The OWASP Top 10, as the name implies, is a list of the top 10 web application vulnerabilities as determined by OWASP. The list is updated and released every few years with the most recent release being the 2017 list. This download provides an introduction to the current list, along with some notes on the changes from the previous (2013) list.

Cross-Site Request Forgery – All You Need to Know

Report

Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerabilities will continue to plague web applications long after its removal from the 2017 edition of the OWASP Top 10. While new architectures, development frameworks, and network devices can help prevent CSRF vulnerabilities, it is important for development teams to understand the vulnerability and how the mitigation strategies impact application security.

Are Automated Scans Enough to Detect All Security Problems in an Application?

Report

Automated scanners are powerful tools that can provide some huge security benefits to any organization that utilizes them. However, are automated scanners alone enough to get an accurate assessment of your application’s risk? This download provides a basic introduction to different types of scanners and attempts to break down areas where automated scanners fall short.
