Security Essentials for Modern Application Stacks

About this opportunity

The speed of application development has increased exponentially in recent years, in line with a dramatic acceleration of digital transformation across all industries. In a recently published application security report by AppDynamics, organizations in all sectors reported feeling more exposed to security threats, including lack of visibility while prioritizing speed of application development & keeping pace with the evolving threat landscape. A few key findings from the research include: • 93% of technologists believe that it’s important to be able to contextualize security so that they can correlate risk in relation to other key areas such as application performance, end user experience, and business metrics, and in doing so prioritize vulnerability fixes based on potential business impact. • 89% of technologists report that their organization has experienced an expansion in its attack surfaces over the last two years. • 58% of respondents admitted that their organization often ends up in ‘security limbo’ because they don’t know what to prioritize. IT teams are battling to stay ahead of an ever-expanding attack surface. However, current efforts to bolster application security are being hampered by information and activity silos. This means application and security teams lack the visibility and tools required to work together to address new risks. The potential implications of this are profound. Is your organization exposed to catastrophic service disruption which could damage customer experience, destroy brand credibility and shrink revenues and market share?
