Myths and Facts of Security Testing

Software security is extremely valuable to users, and even more to the companies. Besides building secure application software, it is crucial to consider and test security right through the software lifecycle. Security Statistics 2018 Report, WhiteHat Security revealed that “The serious number of vulnerabilities in third-party libraries and free software continues to boost at a speed that makes remediation almost impossible for teams that do not assume measures to track third-party component use.”

Therefore, it is further critical now than ever before that enterprises add a potent approach to security testing for their software products. Despite this, some organizations still lag behind the rest of industry in implementing strong security tests due to a lack of understanding of what security testing really is.
