2024: Launch of Secure Development Pipeline Service in AppSec direction

Informzaschita is launching a service to build a pipeline secure development in AppSec direction, taking into account the requirements, as well as to outsource part of this process: scanning and audit. The company announced this on December 24, 2024. From January 1, 2025, GOST R 56939 "Information Protection. Development of secure software. General requirements. " The standard has been revised to improve the effectiveness of assessing the application of safety measures at each stage of development, as well as checking the final product, the new service will help comply with the introduced GOST.

Informzaschita points out that upgrading the development pipeline to meet security requirements allows you to approach the Security by Design concept and reduce Time to market of products. The integrator's specialists will carefully integrate this into existing processes and systems, if necessary, integrate the missing products, and also offer to obtain part of the process in the form of a service.

As part of interaction with third-party and internal development, organizations can also use AppSec Informzaschita services. For example, static and dynamic analyses are performed during the development phase and before start-up. Modern applications are arrays of code and executable components, which, of course, will contain weaknesses. Therefore, its analysis at the development stage becomes one of the key elements of ensuring security. The need arises both among qualified developers who want to be sure of the absence of vulnerabilities, and among customers who want to be sure of the quality of the code received from the developers, "said Denis Senyukov, director of the department for work with the corporate segment of Informzaschita.

Information Informzaschita indicates that the audit uses software tools that allow you to speed up the audit. In this case, manual control is carried out, which allows you to achieve maximum verification efficiency.

Integrator experts point to a number of advantages of using code analyzers: accelerating search and elimination vulnerabilities in, ON optimizing development costs, taking corrective action and compliance, improving performance through automated application protection procedures, and speeding up application implementation and launch by preventing security issues in advance.

We recommend using this service, because it is better to increase development time by eliminating vulnerabilities than to deal with security problems after release, which will be accompanied by financial and reputational losses, "Senyukov notes.
