Ryan Berg, Co-Founder and Chief Scientist for Ounce Labs, Inc.

Make sure you know how to use the right set of code analysis tools to mitigate risks posed by insecure enterprise applications.  It has recently become clear that the core threat is to the network, but to the enterprise’s private data and the applications/business functions that interact with that data.  But how does an organization choose the right set of application security tools to mitigate this risk? Equally important: how, when, and by whom are these tools used most effectively? This white paper examines the three most common tools used to combat critical security vulnerabilities, including an at-a-glance summary report card.

Learn about:

  • The three key application security tools: Web Application Firewalls, Web Application Scanners, and Source Code Analyzers
  • How effectively each tool addresses the top 15 critical vulnerabilities
  • How to use the right combination of tools, at the right time, to address software risk

Can you be sure your applications are protecting your data?   Read more.
