Security platform replaces manual risk assessment with on-the-fly analysis during the build process
2021-03-10 19:12

The platform monitors the software development process from design to code to cloud and builds security checks into the entire lifecycle.

When a commit is in process, the platform compares the changes in the DLL file in the binary to the source control manager and automatically breaks the build behind the scenes, if a security risk pops up.

Lawrence Pingree, managing vice president of emerging technologies for security and risk at Gartner, said in a Linked In post that he sees user and entity behavior analysis as part of the trend toward the "Internet of behaviors."

The hackers behind the SolarWinds attack injected code at a point in the process where neither the security team nor the development team would see it, he said.

In addition to making the software development process more secure, Apiiro makes it easier for developers and security experts to work together.

Security architects or security champions who are part of the development process or on the security team get the warnings from Apiiro first.
