The solutions are ideal for both enterprises and agencies that are considering a move to the cloud, and cloud providers that offer shared infrastructure services to clients. “To fully realize the benefits of cloud computing, customers must trust that infrastructure vulnerabilities – especially the software that cyber-threats target more and more – don’t compromise the cloud’s shared services or open new avenues for hackers to access private information or disrupt business processes,” said Dave Cullinane, Chairman of the Board and Co-Founder of the Cloud Security Alliance. Fortify’s new business white paper, called “Capturing the New Frontier: How Software Security Unlocks the Power of Cloud Computing”, is intended for anyone involved in evaluating a move to the cloud so that they understand and can address the unique software security risks of the cloud. The technical white paper, called “Software Security in the Cloud: A Technical Perspective”, is aimed at security practitioners and developers interested in gaining a deeper technical understanding of the vulnerabilities inherent to a cloud environment, and how to take action to mitigate these vulnerabilities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
Fortify on Demand, a set of hosted Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) solutions that allow any organization to test and score the security of all software with greater speed and accuracy, is the industry’s first SaaS-based software security solution to test for security issues specific to the cloud and to provide a Cloud Readiness Scorecard. “Like immunizing themselves against infection, cloud providers can use Fortify 360 or Fortify on Demand to ensure that bad code introduced by one or more customers doesn’t contaminate their cloud offering. They can also create premium offerings around applications or infrastructure where software security has been rigorously applied,” said Chess.<\/p>\n
“For cloud consumers, our products can ensure that their code is secured and that they can trust their software before the move to this unique shared environment….Its software security suite–Fortify 360–drives down costs and security risks by automating key processes of developing and deploying secure applications.”<\/p>\n
