Improving Application Security For years many organisations have believed security ended at the network layer, blissfully unaware of the risks affecting both bespoke and off-the-shelf applications. As the demand for increasingly complex services delivered across insecure networks grows, organisations are now aware of the need to secure their applications.
My applications are secure, the product manager told meEven though you may have been sold a solution on the grounds that it's 'secure', unless the appropriate level of security has been defined and scoped from the initial requirements analysis it's unlikely that security will have been engineered from the ground up. There are notable exceptions but even companies like Microsoft regularly release security updates. If you've never received a security update from your vendor or developers, they're either doing an amazing job or something could be wrong with their security strategy. Why should I get Mandalorian involved?Mandalorian's team have been involved with Application Security since 1999. We're one of the only security providers out there capable of looking at Application Security from strategic, procedural, policy, design and operational perspectives. We also recognise that not every application is web-based, and have experts in the field of embedded systems and digital rights management. We consider Application Security to be our core service line. Have a look at our brochure for details on our services. What is 'Product Assurance' and how will it help my product?A few years ago, Microsoft realised that they had a serious problem with security. It's taken a few years, but they're now beginning to see the fruits of their labour, especially with products such as Windows XP and Internet Explorer. Equally so, Oracle's 'unbreakable' initiative has helped Oracle maintain their market share. Of course, you don't have to be a giant software house to benefit from Product Assurance.
