Applications developed by public sector organizations tend to have more security flaws than applications created by the private sector, according to Veracode. The findings are notable because increased numbers of flaws and vulnerabilities in applications correlate with increased levels of risk. The research comes amid a flurry of recent initiatives by the federal government to […]
With, arguably, a higher proportion of applications to contend with than other industries, tech firms would benefit from implementing improved secure coding training and practices for their development teams. In fact, Veracode has revealed that 24 percent of applications in the technology sector contain security flaws that are considered high risk—meaning they would cause a […]
New research from Veracode found that most applications use open-source libraries that also present vulnerabilities, but the distribution of such libraries depends on the programming languages used. Open-source libraries are ubiquitous, but they are not limited to integration into open-source apps. In fact, most available apps contain open source libraries, even if they are from […]
