Application Security as a Service (AppSec as a Service) is an outsourced solution that provides continuous, real-time monitoring and assessment of your software applications. Unlike traditional security measures that offer a one-time snapshot of your vulnerabilities, AppSec as a Service provides ongoing protection tailored to your organisation’s specific needs. This approach allows for immediate detection and remediation of any security issues, thereby reducing the risk of data breaches and other cyber threats. For a deeper understanding, you can read our blog post on Why AppSec as a Service.
While both API security and Application Security (AppSec) aim to protect software from vulnerabilities, their focus areas differ. API security specifically targets the security of application programming interfaces (APIs), which are the connectors that allow different software applications to communicate with each other. AppSec, on the other hand, is a broader field that encompasses the security of the entire application, including but not limited to its APIs.
DevSecOps is a practice that integrates security measures directly into the DevOps process, aiming for a more holistic approach to secure the entire software development lifecycle. AppSec, however, focuses solely on the security of the application itself, often as a distinct phase or set of activities within the broader DevSecOps or software development process.
Information Security (InfoSec) is a broad field that aims to protect all information assets within an organisation, whether they are stored in databases, files, or other formats. AppSec is a subset of InfoSec that focuses specifically on securing software applications against vulnerabilities that could be exploited by attackers.
The primary function of Application Security (AppSec) is to identify, assess, and rectify vulnerabilities in software applications. This is crucial for preventing unauthorised access, data breaches, and other forms of cyberattacks. AppSec measures can include code reviews, penetration testing, and real-time monitoring among others.
AppSec as a Service offers a more dynamic and adaptive approach to application security. Traditional methods often provide only a snapshot of an application’s security posture at a single point in time. In contrast, AppSec as a Service offers continuous monitoring and real-time responses to security threats, making it a more effective solution for today’s fast-paced and ever-changing digital landscape. For more insights, check out our blog on Why Application Security.
A common example of application security is the use of real-time monitoring tools to detect vulnerabilities like SQL injection or cross-site scripting in a web application. Once detected, these vulnerabilities can be immediately patched or otherwise mitigated to prevent potential data breaches or unauthorised access.
