Qwiet AI Honored as Winner of Best Application Security Solution at the 2025 SC Awards
The rise of AI-generated code has indeed been a productivity breakthrough. However, it has also ushered in a new class of threat that most security teams are not adequately prepared for: the urgent and looming danger of slopsquatting. What Is Slopsquatting? Slopsquatting is a novel and unprecedented supply chain attack that exploits a flaw in […]
READ MOREKey Takeaways As a software developer, security professional, or technical decision-maker, it is essential to recognize that internal code is not inherently secure; it is often unscanned. Custom frameworks and in-house libraries frequently do not appear in public CVE databases and typically do not match known patterns, making them invisible to most rule-based application security […]
After years of uncovering investment and retail banking fraud, I’ve developed a finely tuned radar for risk disguised as innovation. So when security vendors market “community rules” as a revolutionary leap forward, my fraud-detection instincts go haywire. It’s a wolf in sheep’s clothing, a potential threat masquerading as transparency. Let’s be clear: regulated financial institutions […]
Did you miss the first post? Check out: AppSec House of Cards: Legacy Scanners vs. Agentic Workflows Modern applications aren’t monoliths. They’re sprawling, service-based systems built in multiple languages and stitched with queues, APIs, and serialization layers. In this environment, user input doesn’t just move it migrates across boundaries. The Business Risk: When One Missed […]
Help me CPG, you’re our only hope! The fundamental challenge in software security today isn’t just finding vulnerabilities, it is the inherently fragmented understanding of complex systems. When we examine why critical vulnerabilities persist despite sophisticated expertise and tooling, we often find they exist in the connections and interactions that traditional approaches are simply blind […]
Introduction In software development, transitioning to a microservices architecture is like breaking a big structure into smaller, more connected units. This change lets you scale and be flexible but also brings security challenges. This article looks at how to secure a microservices architecture. It focuses on strategies to isolate and protect each service. Security Risks […]
Introduction Within the cascading bytes and bits of digital communications, developers forge pathways of data, threading information through the vast expanse of the internet. However, threats lurking within these pathways seek to intercept, manipulate, and exploit this data. This article ventures into HTTPS and Strict Transport Security (HSTS), offering developers a guide to comprehend, implement, […]
Introduction CORS: Four simple letters that carry immense weight in web security. As the digital landscape expands, the bridges that allow our applications to communicate become crucial. CORS is that bridge. The unsung hero ensures seamless interactions, but a slight misstep can lead to vulnerabilities. Let’s journey to understand CORS better and ensure our web […]
“It was a dark and stormy night…” While this introduction works for spooky stories, no developer wants their app to become nightmare fuel. While you might be able to grab a flashlight to comfort yourself around a campfire, you don’t have the same protection when you’re working on an application. Increasingly, developers use third-party code […]
Introduction Let’s dive into the fascinating world of web security, specifically discussing a notorious threat – clickjacking. Imagine a user clicking on a button thinking they like a photo but instead transferring money from their bank account. Scary, right? That’s clickjacking for you. This threat not only compromises user trust but can also deal a […]
