- 5. Business Problem: Security teams are often responsible for the security of thousands of applications; but don’t have enough security experts on staff to handle the workload. It was a problem that Cisco faced several years ago. With a small security team and an application portfolio of nearly 2,500 applications, security staff worried they were becoming a “bottleneck” in application security. Solution: Using IBM® Security AppScan® Enterprise, Cisco empowered developers and QA personnel to test applications and address security issues before deployment. Benefits: Drove a 33 percent decrease in number of security issues found, reduced post-deployment remediation costs significantly, freed security experts to focus on deep application vulnerability assessments. Featured Security Offering: IBM® Security AppScan® Enterprise Link to Case Study: Cisco Case Study “AppScan helped us create a self-service model. We could take the product and put it in the hands of the developers and QA testers so they could identify and fix security vulnerabilities before production.” Sujata Ramamoorthy Director, Information Security Cisco Cisco empowered developers and QA personnel to test applications and address security issues prior to deployment, with IBM® Security AppScan® 5

- 8. Why is application security vital? You’ve probably done a lot to encourage data security—but could the applications you run be the equivalent of a front door to your enterprise that’s been left wide open? The security of the data in your organisation’s hands depends on a lot more than just locking down individual files and records. You need to tighten security at the application level, too, because applications can control access to your data—and even to your organisation’s Internet of Things (IoT) infrastructure. Many notorious security breaches have occurred not because of poor data security practices, but because of vulnerable applications. Deploying application security helps prevent rogue or vulnerable software from allowing cybercriminals to siphon data that you thought wassecure. Even so, application security remains an often-neglected area of cybersecurity,1 and breaches continue tooccur. Why? In part, because locking down applications is more complicated than encrypting files or safeguarding networks with firewalls. Applications have also grown in number and type, with the advent of app stores and specialised applications that access cloud-basedinfrastructure. Meanwhile, widespread adoption of bring-your-own-device (BYOD) policies has resulted in an increase in unvetted applications, and application-connected IoT data sources proliferate rapidly. Application security is vitalto: • Prevent reputational damage • Maintain customertrust • Avoid remediationcosts • Detect and respond to security risks before they cause damage Watch a demo of what IBM Application Security on Cloud can accomplish for you. 1 “How to Make Application Security a Strategically Managed Discipline,” Ponemon Institute, March 2016. 2 “The State of Mobile Application Insecurity,” Ponemon Institute, February 2015. In one study, 77% of respondingdevelopers say applications are vulnerable because pressure to release applications quickly prevents adequate testing.2 APPLICATION SECURITY A COMPLETE SOLUTION CASE STUDIES FOR MORE INFORMATION COMPLEX TASKS APPLICATION CHALLENGES BEST PRACTICES 8
- 9. Why do organisations struggle to achieve application security success? Application security is complicated by factors that span developers, IT staff and end users. In combination, these factors can make organisations susceptible to vulnerabilities. Rush torelease A pervasive “rush to release” atmosphere means developers are often short of testing resources. But application security doesn’t just rest with developers. There’s a parallel rush to install applications quickly, as users seek the efficiencies that new software can deliver. Complexapplications Software varies wildly in scope, data requirements, language and platform. A compromised application with a direct line to company data can be as risky as a misplaced laptop loaded with similar data— perhaps worse, if the gap goes unnoticed. An insecure or malicious application could expose your data, whether it has been exploited by a security vulnerability or because it began life insecure. Application security not apriority Application-layer vulnerabilities are often viewed as low priorities, and organisations typically do not rank applications by importance for protection. And applications are often dispersed throughout an organisation—along with accountability for their security—withlittle visibility into which ones are in use or which ones are most vulnerable. Lack ofstandards Users can’t devote time to security testing—and don’t know how to test effectively. There are few universal application securitystandards, so guidance and on-site expertise can be difficult to assess or employ. 1 “How to Make Application Security a Strategically Managed Discipline,” Ponemon Institute, March 2016.

- 10. Effective application security practices confirm that security should be viewed as a process, not as a series of items to check off a list. As such, application security testing must be comprehensive and ongoing. For developers, the application security testing process should be embedded in the software development lifecycle, with ongoing source code analysis. For end-user organisations, the process continues, with vetting of all new software that’s deployed, as well as re- testing applications on which the organisation alreadyrelies. Comprehensive application security shouldinvolve: • Discovering and cataloging applications thatare currently inuse • Static testing—scanning application source code for vulnerabilities is the most direct way to find the actual code behind a particular securityvulnerability • Dynamic testing—evaluating what the software does when it’s deployed (for instance, is it vulnerable to potential cross-site scripting and SQL injectionattacks?) • Mobile application security testing, due to the proliferation of new mobile applications in themarket • Deployment of new software only after it’s been vetted Applications should be re-evaluated regularly, and this evaluation should be informed by sources such as the Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP)Top Tenlist1—new threats can putformerly safe applications atrisk.

- 11. In vetting applications for security risks, organisations operate under constraints that range from limited budgets to heavy workloads of their security and IT staffs. But such constraints cannot get in the way of improving security protection. Instead, your organisation should employ best practices thatinclude: • Oversight—Planned, automated testing delivers morethorough and reliable results than ad-hoctesting • Continuity—Applications should be built and tested forsecurity and re- tested to keep up with vulnerabilities • Prioritisation—Ranking application security issues based on severity and potential business impact permits problems to be tackled in the order that makes the most business sense • Flexibility—Avoiding restrictive implementation requirements is critical to evaluate the full range of applications deployed by your organisation • Adaptability—Threats change over time; a flexible approach results in fewer changes to remain in control of application security • Timeliness—To avoid disrupting—or redoing—development processes, applications should be tested throughout all stages of the development lifecycle An integrated application security solution such as IBM®Application Security on Cloud can help you minimise security gaps and identify potential vulnerabilities.
