APPSEC PHOENIX CVE, CWE, CONTEXT IS QUEEN, VULNERABILITY PRIORITIZATION IS QUEEN talk at London DevSecOps

DSO London Gathering Francesco Cipollone CVE and the land of broken dreams

Phoenix Security CEO Francesco Cipollone will be talking at the London DevSecOps meetup.

Book your place here: https://www.meetup.com/devsecops-london-gathering/events/289035730/

Meeting Details

CVE, CVSS, and the land of broken dreams
Context is king; Prioritization is queen, and CVSS is dead. Stop your tiers and start with a risk approach and contextual view of vulnerabilities.

Vulnerability tooling is increasing, security advisories are faster, and teams are leaner. Have we lost the battle of vulnerabilities, is the shift left and the view that ‘security is everyone’s problem working?

We present a risk and cyber quantification view on vulnerabilities across cloud, application, and infrastructure addressing modern approaches to cybersecurity from the point of view of the product security team.

We will walk several use cases showing how context, prioritization, probability and impact analysis can improve which vulnerability to solve first.

What the heck is ASPM and how modern ASPM address new challenges? In this article we explore Application Security Posture Management (ASPM) and how it has become essential for organizations looking to safeguard their applications throughout the software development lifecycle (SDLC). But what truly defines a modern ASPM solution? In this article, we delve into the typical ASPM vendors, explore edge cases, and outline the fundamental pillars that unite them. At Phoenix Security, we recognize the challenges posed by diverse organizational structures, making ASPM as much about data and culture as it is about vulnerability management. That’s why we’ve introduced our ONE BACKLOG feature, which merges security champion initiatives with vulnerability workflows into a single, actionable dashboard. This integration empowers security teams to maintain a comprehensive view of vulnerabilities across code, cloud, and other artifacts, streamlining prioritization and remediation efforts. ASPM is more than just a framework; it’s a proactive strategy that fosters collaboration between development, security, and operations teams. With benefits like unified visibility, risk-based prioritization, and continuous monitoring, organizations can effectively identify and address vulnerabilities, ensuring a robust security posture. Join us as we explore the future of ASPM, focusing on code-to-cloud native solutions, maximizing existing tools, and nurturing a culture of security that transcends traditional barriers. Learn how ASPM can revolutionize your approach to application security and enhance your organization’s resilience in an ever-evolving threat landscape.

Enhance your vulnerability management with Application Security Posture Management (ASPM) and reachability analysis. Discover how ASPM helps prioritize exploitable vulnerabilities, reduce security noise, and improve risk management. Learn about advanced techniques like code and container reachability, contextual deduplication, and Phoenix Security’s cutting-edge solutions for smarter, more effective application security.
Francesco Cipollone
Phoenix Security’s Application Security Posture Management (ASPM) introduces Reachability Analysis and Contextual Deduplication to revolutionize vulnerability management. These features help security teams prioritize risks by correlating vulnerabilities from code to runtime, focusing on what’s exploitable. With contextual deduplication, Phoenix reduces vulnerability noise by up to 95%, ensuring only real threats are addressed. Stay ahead with 4D Risk Quantification, combining business criticality, network, and runtime reachability for smarter, more effective security.- Associate assets with multiple Applications and Environments – Mapping of vulnerabilities to Installed Software – Find Assets/Vulns by Scanner – Detailed findings Location information Risk-based Posture Management – Risk and Risk Magnitude for Assets – Filter assets and vulnerabilities by source scanner Integrations – BurpSuite XML Import – Assessment Import API Other Improvements – Improved multi-selection in filters – New CVSS Score column in Vulnerabilities
