iViZ launches “SecureAssist” for Software developer to write secure code
India’s Software Developer community is the second-largest in the world after USA. It writes software code worth of US$80 billion in a year and only 60% of companies use testing services before they take software products global.
Also, Gartner stated that 75% of all attacks on web sites and web applications target the application level and not the infrastructure.
To counteract the industry’s challenges like these, iViZ (a Cigital Company) launches “SecureAssist” in India, a product that comes in need to every software developer to write a secure code from the start. In other words, this is the product that unveils security vulnerabilities in software when the code is written.
Bikash Barai, Co-Founder & CEO, iViZ, said, “A simple tool with phenomenal use is expected to create a revolution in India’s software developer community. This just doesn’t automatically identify coding errors as code is written but also links the issues with precise location in source and displays customizable context-sensitive secure coding guidance.”
SecureAssist focusses on helping developers reduce risk from the most common security vulnerabilities, as indicated by industry standards such as the OWASP Top 10 and CWE Top 25, which account for well over 70% of all attacks. By notifying developers when they are working on a section of code where risk could be introduced, SecureAssist reinforces secure coding practices, organizational standards and provides a consistent and validated source of guidance...
