Introducing Qwiet AI AutoFix! Reduce the time to secure code by 95% Read More
Qwiet AI and the ancient Greek physicians like the father of medicine Hippocrates have much in common. Hippocrates highlighted the significance of a healthy diet and lifestyle in preventing diseases and acknowledged the root cause of physical and psychological ailments as diet and lifestyle choices (Διαιτήμασί in Greek), and now Qwiet AI is delivering his […]
READ MOREI’m sure we’re all familiar with the idea made popular by Malcolm Gladwell’s book Outliers that it takes 10,000 hours to truly master something. Based on the paper “The Role of Deliberate Practice in the Acquisition of Expert Performance“, the research data indicates that people who are experts in a field got to that level […]
With containers, you can build, deploy, scale, and integrate your applications without interruption. From the developer’s perspective, you get the efficiency and flexibility necessary for building an application that can be deployed to any operating system. From your security team’s perspective, you might be compromising the application’s security. You can think of it like storing […]
We all do it. When we are recalling a story or something that happened in our lives, we fill in the “fuzzy” areas with what we believe to be the truth. It’s human nature to embellish somewhat or simply fill in the blanks with what could be facts based on our recollection, but often are […]
For a lot of programmers, Python is their “love language.” Easy to learn and use, Python is perfect for building cutting-edge machine learning and cloud computing projects. Unfortunately, knowing that programmers love Python, malicious actors have started targeting the Python Package Index (PyPI) as part of supply chain attacks. As researchers identify more malicious Python […]
Shipping your software – and doing it on time – may be your first priority as a developer. However, as your company shifts security left, you need to build it into your processes while still meeting estimated timelines. Now you need to manage cross-functional communications and respond to seemingly competing priorities. You’re trying to debug […]
Shortcomings of static program analysis in practice Creating programs that analyze other programs is a fascinating idea in itself. It hurts me to say that static code analysis has a remarkably bad reputation among practitioners. If you have performed security assessments and used these tools, you may agree that pinpointing the concrete shortcomings of these […]
According to the 1980’s cartoon G.I. Joe, “knowing is half the battle.” Unfortunately, threat actors often have more information than their targets, which is why they’re so successful. For developers and AppSec teams, having information about threat actor tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) helps even the digital battlefield. Threat intelligence feeds provide data about malicious […]
The National Cybersecurity Strategy Implementation Plan plays a vital role in safeguarding the digital infrastructure of the nation. This comprehensive plan, outlined by the White House, is comprised of three pillars and sets forth a roadmap to enhance cybersecurity measures across various sectors. Pillar Three of the implementation plan focuses on the need for developers […]
Software engineers’ ideal state includes being able to work with minimal disruption. This “flow state” is when they are most productive and have the best chance of delivering the products and features they are tasked with producing within the required timeline. Whenever something adversely impacts their flow state productivity, mental health, and overall effectiveness may […]
