Shift Left for Greater Compliance<\/strong>
\nIn her seminal blogpost, \u201cShifting Security to the Left<\/a>\u201d Shannon Lietz explains how including security testing earlier into the development lifecycle makes for longer-lived and more resilient software. Shannon points out that with security requirements represented earlier in the software development process, it effectively makes enforcement and compliance part of the Continuous Delivery pipeline. The principles she advocates for are also what guides us at 42Crunch as we enable almost one million API developers with our API security testing tools<\/a> to test the functionality of their APIs as they code.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Remediate Before Deployment\"\"<\/strong><\/p>\n

One of the core problems cited with API behavior monitoring and discovery tools is their inability to take remediative action to fix the root cause of an API vulnerability. In contrast, leveraging 42Crunch\u2019s testing capabilities<\/a>,\u00a0 developers and security teams are able to identify and fix any issues on the fly during the design and development stages from within the IDE and CI\/CD pipelines. Our API security testing tools identify security issues early and offer developers remediation advice during the development stage so that when they hand an API over to security teams they are already compliant with the mandated security policies.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Governance Direct from the CI\/CD Pipeline\"\"<\/strong>
\nBy introducing security early into the lifecycle we make enforcement and compliance a function within the CI\/CD pipeline. No longer does security have to wait until after the API has been deployed downstream to identify vulnerabilities or worry about rogue APIs being deployed. With the 42Crunch API security platform, security teams get full visibility of the entire API portfolio, including audit grades, usage, blocked attacks, and potential vulnerabilities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
