OVERVIEW
Application Security and DevSecOps
Applications facilitate comprehensive access to enterprise resources. Eastwards Application Security and DevSecOps service provides end-to-end CI/CD pipeline security. With Eastwards Application Security, you can secure your organization’s digital ecosystem and automate application testing while prioritizing Advanced Risk Identification and Mitigation. Know more.
NEED FOR APPLICATION SECURITY
With the rapid expansion of application transformation from on-premises to cloud computing or hybrid environments, the rate of potential risks and security breaches has increased multiplefold. This transition also induces breaches across the application layer. Integrating security measures early in the software development lifecycle in conjunction with DevOps helps organizations reduce costs, identify and mitigate potential risks in the early stages, and minimize impact during production rollouts. Additionally, application security provides an element of security through the Shift-left DevOps process within application security.
SOLUTION
Eastwards application security services help organizations establish a holistic security ecosystem by implementing the latest innovations and technological changes. We enhance the security within DevOps using automation, helping reduce false detections and ensuring rapid countermeasures. We follow a three-step process that begins with threat modeling, followed by vulnerability assessment and intrusion testing on the application attack surface across all the firm’s devices. We map the maturity curve on the current blueprint of the organization and help assess the areas of improvement in the organization’s security ecosystem. Eastwards helps design the application security governance framework and modify the existing application landscape to establish DevSecOps. Our security framework helps organizations implement collaboration, automation, and agility within DevOps lifecycle phases.
