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 […]

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 […]

As we embark on this new chapter in application security, it’s important to understand how AI and machine learning can provide greater understanding and insight into vulnerabilities than older methods of detection. In this article we will cover the following: The risk of using vulnerable dependencies (directly or transitively) Not all vulnerabilities pose risk. Why not? […]

AI Findings Qwiet AI has introduced a new finding category within the preZero application.  In addition to the standard fields at the top of the screen, a new category labeled “AI Findings” will now be visible. This is the first iteration of the AI/ML detection engine within the preZero platform, which will have a tremendous […]

On March 21, the Biden administration directed US companies to “harden your cyber defenses immediately.” With these new federal guidelines for application security, the White House urged software developers to deploy “modern tools that can detect known and potential vulnerabilities” in their custom and open-source software (OSS). Learn more about how ShiftLeft can help.

The threat landscape is evolving quickly. Application security is working to keep pace with the ever-evolving threat landscape. As the application development process becomes more incremental, with developers embracing frameworks such as Agile and DevSecOps, it is becoming more important for developers to pay attention to application security trends, know what they can do better […]

Securing applications is not the easiest thing to do. An application has many components: server-side logic, client-side logic, data storage, data transportation, API, and more. With all these components to secure, building a secure application can seem really daunting. Thankfully, most real-life vulnerabilities share the same root causes. And by studying these common vulnerability types, […]

Open Source Software (OSS) is at the core of today’s information technology. About 80% of companies run their operations on OSS and 96% of applications are built using open source components. Most of today’s commercial products are shipped with some OSS libraries. This also means that securing open source dependencies and fixing open source vulnerabilities […]
