Oracle announced new capabilities to help customers accelerate the development of applications and deployment on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI).
Contrast Security introduced Application Detection and Response (ADR).
Contrast Security ADR empowers security teams to identify vulnerabilities, detect threats, and stop attacks that target custom applications and APIs.
ADR positions defenses inside the actual application, enabling security from within.
The release of Contrast Security ADR is the next evolution in Application Security (AppSec), empowering security teams to:
- See Attacks on Applications and APIs: Security Operations teams can now get real-time alerts that include crucial context and fewer false positives on devastating attacks such as command injection, path traversal and SQL injection.
- Stop Attacks on Applications and APIs: SecOps teams can choose to utilize Contrast ADR’s real-time attack blocking capabilities or perform incident response actions as defined by their standard security workflows.
- Improve Detection & Response with new SOC Integrations: Security analysts can now take faster action armed with better attack intelligence on application and API attacks by leveraging the consoles of leading security information and event management (SIEM), cloud-native application protection platform (CNAPP), and extended detection and response (XDR) platforms.
“Companies have invested in detection and response capabilities across the network, including EDR (endpoint), NDR (network), CDR (cloud) and ITDR (identity threat) and are gaining even greater security control using XDR and next-gen SIEM solutions. But attackers continue to leverage gaps in applications and APIs. ADR closes that critical gap and blocks many zero-day attacks by removing these vulnerable blindspots,” said Rick Fitz, CEO of Contrast Security.
Contrast ADR integrates application visibility with common SIEM, XDR and CNAPP solutions so analysts can focus on disrupting threats via their standard security interfaces.
Contrast Security ADR allows companies to stop zero days before they are published. The technology that underpins ADR is the Contrast Runtime Security Platform, which not only detects vulnerabilities in code, but also keeps bad things from happening by blocking attacks in production via security that’s embedded directly into the application. The platform instruments the code as it loads at runtime, equipping it with security checks to make powerful functions safe against misuse by developers and abuse by attackers.
