“Government departments and agencies are being challenged to keep up with the rapid development pace of their applications while meeting security and compliance requirements,” said Ron Kormanek, Vice President of North America Sales at Checkmarx. “With our CxSAST solution in place, government departments and agencies in Canada will be empowered and able to address security, compliance and speed-to-market requirements of their applications by identifying and eliminating security vulnerabilities at the development stage of the software development life cycle (SDLC).”
The growing dependence on software coupled with increased exposure and usage of the internet emphasize that software reliability is becoming increasingly critical to users. Software developers are expected to rise to the challenge and deliver applications which are both safe and secure.
Checkmarx’s Static Application Security Testing (SAST) solution is designed to identify and effectively eliminate software flaws. The solution examines the “blueprint” of an application and creates a meticulous model of how the application interacts with users and other data to recognize critical vulnerabilities quickly with the help of automation. This comprehensive solution helps secure applications from the ground up, and enables organizations to comply with regulations and standards.
