Overview

Cloud migration, microservices and container adoption are driving application modernization, but are your applications secure? Application vulnerabilities are often uncovered late because DevOps and security processes can be disjointed. Application security services professionals with a deep understanding of the software development lifecycle (SDLC) can help assess and transform your “shift-left” and DevSecOps practices.

Group 27
Unifies people, process and technology
Plans, designs, implements, integrates and deploys security strategically into every step of the development lifecycle. Shared skills sets and collaboration help transform people, process and technology into DevSecOps best practices, backed up by the IBM® Application Security Center of Excellence.
Group 26
Increases quality, regulatory compliance and cost reduction
Empowers “shift-left” practices to reduce app security defects early in the SDLC. This helps reduce the cost of fixing software vulnerabilities and improve compliance with industry and government regulations.
Group 21
Securely accelerates development and innovation
Enables security automation and integration into the continuous integration and continuous deployment pipeline. Application security training onsite or online can drive productivity between DevOps and security for rapid innovation and security-focused software development.
Capabilities Application security services are focused around three key areas of DevSecops, training and threat modeling. DevSecOps services help development, security and operations teams share skills for greater collaboration. Either onsite or digital application security training builds and strengthens the skills and expertise to build and run enterprise-grade software. Lastly, application threat modeling services provide in-depth analysis of application security vulnerabilities. Application penetration testing services
