Software doesn’t exist in a vacuum. Applications have become intricate assemblies, drawing on components from enterprise development teams, open-source libraries, and even AI-generated code.
Shifting left has become and remains a critical philosophy helping companies identify and fix vulnerabilities at pennies on the dollar before they become costly disruptions. From automated code verification and dependency checks to hands-on anomaly detection and testing, more companies are ensuring robust security from development to delivery- and for good reason.
A single vulnerability can now send reverberations through the interconnected software supply chain to cause damage across entire industries. As software supply chain breaches become the norm, every element of software, from in-house to external code, must be secured to protect our interconnected global economy.
The future of software is secure components flowing through a resilient supply chain. Companies will maintain greater visibility over the moving parts in their applications and products to innovate at a faster pace and larger scale. Developers, trained in security fundamentals, will ensure higher code quality and more useful products. Stronger and more continuous application testing will promote trust.
We believe the platforms and solutions improving software integrity will fuel the next great innovations in our digitally enabled world.
