How to Develop More Secure Software & the 2018 Cybersecurity Excellence Awards

    

The subject of security in the area of software development is an important one, as there are a number of different challenges that developers face while trying to develop more secure software. Steve Feldman, our Vice President of Engineering, was recently interviewed by Matt Watson for the podcast "Developer Things." 

"Just like you look at the performance of a running application, we’re really looking at the security posture of a running application ... My best recommendation to developers is to find ways to get feedback about their security posture in their existing tool pipeline."

Head on over to Stackify to hear what Steve has to say on the subject of security in software development >>

Highlights of today’s episode include:

  • How developers can become more aware of patterns and defects that can lead to security vulnerabilities.
  • OWASP – The Open Web Application Security Project.
  • How Contrast Security’s software works to address vulnerabilities in code.
  • WAFs – Web Application Firewalls.
  • Tips for writing better and more secure code.
