As a Contrast Security customer you already have the best-in-class security platform for applications and application programming interfaces (APIs). With Contrast, you can rest easy knowing you have fewer vulnerabilities and you can catch attacks in production.
But we know you also need faster development cycles. At the same time, you must maintain excellent security. How do you do it all? With Contrast One: our new, managed-service offering for Application Security (AppSec).
Contrast One is a comprehensive, fully managed runtime security platform designed to tackle the challenges of modern AppSec. Unlike traditional tools, Contrast One offers a complete solution that takes the burden off your shoulders.
Here's what's really happening in AppSec today
Let's be honest — your AppSec program isn't keeping up with threats. The latest Verizon Data Breach Report confirms what you're probably already feeling: Web application attacks shot up 180% last year. And let me guess — you've tried buying more tools, hiring more people (if you can find them) and pushing your teams to "shift left." But here's the reality: Throwing more tools at the problem isn't fixing it.
If you're like most of the security leaders we talk to, you're probably dealing with:
- Security teams drowning in alerts (most of them false positives)
- Developers pushing back on security bottlenecks
- A constant struggle to find and keep security talent
- The sinking feeling that despite all your tools, you're still exposed
You're not alone. Recent IDC research shows this is happening everywhere:
- 23.3% of organizations can't get their developers up to speed on security
- 21.9% are losing the battle to hire security talent
- 18.3% can't make their security training stick
The hidden costs of DIY AppSec
The traditional approach to AppSec comes with significant hidden costs:
- Resource drain: Security teams are overwhelmed by alerts and false positives, while developers are frustrated by security bottlenecks
- Skills gap: The shortage of security expertise leads to inconsistent coverage and increased risk
- Innovation slowdown: Security becomes a bottleneck rather than an enabler of innovation
- Rising risks: As attack surfaces expand, gaps in security coverage become more dangerous
Contrast One can handle the heavy lifting of AppSec
Instead of giving you another tool to manage, we provide a fully managed service that addresses every aspect of AppSec. Here’s how we do it:
- Our customer security advisors serve as strategic partners who guide and support your AppSec journey. These seasoned experts start by understanding your development processes, compliance requirements and risk tolerance. They craft a security roadmap tailored to your organization’s unique needs — identifying priority applications, implementing new controls seamlessly and defining metrics that align with executive goals.
They don’t just create the plan; they ensure its success by providing ongoing support. From quarterly reviews to guidance on critical zero-day threats or fast-tracked application deployments, they’re there every step of the way.
- Our AppSec team manages your day-to-day operations. Our AppSec team takes full ownership of your operations, providing enterprise-grade security without the need for you to build an in-house team. This includes:
- Vulnerability management: Proactive monitoring and triaging of vulnerabilities to eliminate false positives. Our experts ensure that validated issues are resolved with clear remediation guidance and verification.
- Platform administration: Comprehensive management of user access, agent deployments, tool integrations and policy enforcement. We fine-tune settings to optimize performance and minimize noise.
- Reporting and compliance: Regular security updates and compliance-ready reports tailored to your business needs. We track key metrics, identify trends and recommend ongoing improvements.
By entrusting us with your AppSec operations, you gain expert-level security coverage, streamlined workflows and peace of mind — without the burden of managing it all yourself.
