Application Security

Intended to prevent data or code within an application from being stolen, replicated or hijacked, application security covers all aspects of the business development lifecycle — including analysis, design, implementation, testing and maintenance. Whether it’s testing current security methods or adding new protective features such as authentication, encryption and authorisation, application security is an integral protective component that improves security practices while detecting, repairing and avoiding security flaws within an application.

Here at Dragonfly Technologies, we have an integrated and innovative cyber business and enterprise approach that includes the following application security tests: 

• Secure code reviews — As part of our application security process, our team of security engineers will assess and ensure your business application code is safeguarded.

• Automated code vulnerability tools — From SAST and DAST to IAST, we partner with vulnerability vendors to provide an automated code analysis that protects your business applications. 

• Secure architecture review — As part of our applications security service, we will assess your application design components to identify vulnerabilities against your company’s best practices. 

• Threat modelling — This is an early-stage risk assessment plan that identifies and eliminates potential vulnerabilities and threats when the application is in its development phase. 

• Container security — Our team will provide tailored security programs that help your developers gain implementation skills that ensure secure web applications. 

Every business is vulnerable to malicious cyberattacks, hacking and industrial espionage, not just major corporations. And with today’s innovative and high-tech applications being connected directly to the cloud, companies are more vulnerable and prone to security attacks and data breaches. Regardless of the size of your company or the number of staff you employ, every business will benefit from application security embedded into the development lifecycle.

Cyberattacks pose a risk that should not be taken lightly, so application security is integral to businesses of all shapes and sizes. If you’re hoping to prevent data, code or personal information within an app from being stolen, duplicated or worse, application security should be considered best practice.
