As organizations are under increasing pressure to boost productivity and gain a competitive advantage, they are modernizing application development processes. However, as the adoption of new technologies helps them scale software development for greater speed and volume of releases, security teams need to keep pace to effectively manage risk and protect applications from threats. Traditional application security methods may be disruptive or even slow down development processes. As development teams scale using cloud-native technologies and modernized processes, the higher chance for mistakes creates software vulnerabilities that leave them susceptible to attack. Security teams need a modernized approach to efficiently incorporate security tools and processes across the software development lifecycle while promoting business growth by supporting development as it scales.
