Application security is the safeguarding of data and code within vital applications. Encompassing the security considerations needed during development, design, and usage, application security is an essential element of your cyber security strategy.
Why you need application security
The world is becoming increasingly digital, leading to an increased use of applications both at home and work. This, combined with sophisticated cyber threats, means that application security has become an absolute necessity.
Application security aims to protect what is considered the weakest security link, safeguarding software application code and data against cyber threats. Application security needs to be applied during all deployment phases, including design, development, and deployment.
Threat actors are constantly on the lookout for vulnerabilities to exploit, and without proper security measures in place, your valuable data could easily fall into the wrong hands. By implementing robust application security protocols, you ensure your data remains secure and confidential and prevent the compromise of vital customer information. By investing in application security, you are not only safeguarding your customers’ data but also protecting your reputation as a trustworthy and reliable organisation.
What are the benefits of application security?

many industries have specific regulations and compliance standards (such as GDPR, HIPAA, and PCI DSS). Application security solutions help ensure adherence to these regulations, avoiding penalties and legal issues
Risk mitigation
application security helps mitigate the risks associated with cyber threats, reducing the likelihood of successful attacks
Maintain reputation and trust
strong security measures preserve customer trust and brand reputation by preventing data breaches or leaks that could damage credibility and relationships with customers
Cost savings
