Traceable AI Announces API Security Testing

Traceable AI | September 02, 2022 | Read time : 02:50 min

Traceable AI, the industry's leading API security and observability company, today announced the general availability of its API Security Testing (xAST) solution in its API Security Platform. This comprehensive and seamless testing ability enables any API in pre-production to be tested for vulnerabilities, accuracy, reliability, and overall security — ensuring organizations are aligned with the highest API security standards before releasing APIs into production.This announcement reinforces Traceable's commitment to helping organizations ensure the highest level of API security throughout the entire software development lifecycle (SDLC).

Traceable's API Security Testing offering is built to make the testing of APIs fast, easy, and a seamless experience for both development and security teams. It supports organizations' shift left initiatives, including providing remediation insights from runtime back to development, so developers can further harden their APIs. It is API focused providing complete vulnerability analysis that leverages functional testing, as well as API DNA and user attribution for improved detection and coverage. It offers extensive coverage for the OWASP API top 10, top CVEs (such as Java, Go, Node JS, AuthN, AuthZ, and many more), business logic vulnerabilities, and sensitive data exposure. Uniform API testing is based on dynamic payloads for standard tests, and dynamic Traceable payloads for business logic vulnerabilities such as BOLA – all with virtually zero false positives. Its DevSecOps focus enables companies to identify API security gaps between prod and pre-prod, perform fast scans for actionable results in CI/CD pipelines, scan at a granularity from every pull request with API spec changes, and utilize integrations with application security tools, including SCA, SAST, DAST and IAST.

"Because of our comprehensive approach to API security, the testing component was the logical evolution. It is key to enable development teams to identify security weaknesses and vulnerabilities in the build itself, in addition to the capability of providing runtime insights back to development teams, so they can further harden their APIs. "It's an important step to enable teams to seamlessly fit API security testing into their development cycles. It is based on a simple logic: prevent breaches by eliminating the flaws at the very beginning."

CTO of Traceable AI, Sanjay Nagaraj

Traceable's API security testing is built to both reduce the risk of vulnerable APIs early in the SDLC, and enable development teams to move fast. Additional benefits include:

Eliminating the Risk of Vulnerable APIs: Find and fix API vulnerabilities early in the SDLC.
Cost Reduction: Reduce costs associated with finding vulnerabilities in APIs in production.
Rapid Scans that Maintain the Speed of Innovation: With Traceable, development teams can perform fast scans with virtually no change in dev-release cadences – eliminating friction for both dev and security teams.
Comprehensive Reporting: Traceable produces a "scan summary" report of vulnerabilities found while testing the APIs. This includes the OWASP API top 10 vulnerabilities, language and library vulnerabilities like Log4shell, misconfigurations, data exposure, and broken authentication/authorization. The information, including CVSS/CWE scores for overall risk assessment and recommendations for remediation is provided to development and security teams, so they can correct the security issues in APIs before those APIs are pushed to production.
Operational Effectiveness: Traceable's API security testing is easy to deploy and reduces complexity, with numerous CI/CD and appsec tooling integrations that allow for operational effectiveness. It also enables targeted API security testing which takes actual payloads from real time traffic into account for a concise set of actionable findings.
Extensive and Effortless Integrations: Traceable allows for numerous integrations with CI/CD pipelines, notifications, ticketing and application security testing solutions.

"Whether an API is in the development cycle or is in production, being accessed by thousands of users, Traceable's API Security Platform protects companies' most vulnerable attack vector from threats at every juncture" added Nagaraj.

Checkmarx Introduces Codebashing 2.0, the First AppSec Solution to Boost Developer Experience and Adoption with New Gamified User Interface

Prnewswire | July 24, 2023

Checkmarx, the global leader in application security solutions, has introduced Codebashing 2.0, its latest developer AppSec learning solution, equipping development teams with all the right skills to write secure code based on their roles and needs. Now offering an enhanced integration within the Checkmarx One™ Application Security Platform, Codebashing makes learning and developer adoption of application security (AppSec) frictionless and fully integrated into the development life cycle. With digital transformation increasing demands on software development teams, AppSec has become a critical area for large enterprises to reduce business risk even as less time is available for finding and fixing vulnerabilities in applications. In the interest of productivity and speed, most development teams work within integrated development environments (IDEs) and require security teams to prioritize and focus them on fixing key vulnerabilities. "The competing pressures of application time-to-deployment and AppSec risk reduction have long plagued and challenged development teams and CISOs," said Sandeep Johri, CEO at Checkmarx. "This new version of Codebashing is a game-changer for security teams to enable and provide knowledge and trust in handling vulnerabilities fixes. Its updated integration to the Checkmarx One platform solves some of the main challenges we constantly hear from CISOs and security teams seeking to improve the developer experience while also ensuring a secure and rapid pipeline of applications. These are critical elements of a successful digital transformation as enterprises continue their migration to the cloud." Learning key concepts within their familiar workspaces and applying those concepts from the first line of code to the last across all applications can significantly lower AppSec risk while boosting productivity. Codebashing 2.0 integrates fluidly into a developer's daily routine and workflow by offering "bite-sized" learning modules through Checkmarx One plugins within the developer's IDE. Designed by some of the industry's leading AppSec security researchers and engineers, Codebashing modules upskill developers' ability to write secure code from the very first line. Codebashing 2.0 offers a new way for security teams to better engage developers for AppSec adoption through a whole new experience and new gamified user interface. It includes a new Learning Path, which is a tailored professional skill tree that enables developers to continuously cultivate their expertise, stepping beyond the confines of one-time training sessions. The Learning Path is designed to be adaptive and personalized. Developers can select their unique path based on their specializations: Back-end, Front-end, or DevOps. This custom-tailored approach ensures that each developer is guided through the secure coding learning most pertinent to their specific role and responsibilities. Security Champion Program With Codebashing 2.0, Checkmarx has introduced the first in-market program to allow large enterprises to scale its AppSec program by training and certifying personnel from the engineering team as security champions. This certificate is backed by almost 20 years of AppSec expertise and includes a predefined training and certification including: Hours of gamified and comprehensive content such as quizzes and assessments to obtain and measure knowledge transfer Best practices critically needed by Security Champions. "The CISOs of global enterprise companies among our clients have repeatedly told us that two things are critical to building trust and collaboration between security and development teams: implementation of a proper framework of AppSec skills and methodologies and creating security champions among their developers. This is why we developed the first Security Champion Program in the market," said Ramon Herzlinger, General Manager of Codebashing at Checkmarx. "We invested extensively to ensure that all the relevant aspects are taught, including front-end, back-end, and DevOps-related knowledge and certification and based on feedbacks with customers who trailed it already, we are confident it is a major breakthrough in generating trust between security and development teams." Codebashing 2.0 includes a completely revamped user experience, new learning paths, and the most up to date AppSec learning content on the market covering the latest challenges and needs of development and security teams. With Codebashing 2.0, CISOs can identify gaps in knowledge about secure code capabilities fixes within their developers and help drive secure code awareness.
