New risks become apparent in modern application development (MAD) primarily due to the “legolized” methodology, which introduces numerous variables into the risk versus reward equation.
Although the promised benefits of MAD are measurable and well-supported across the development industry, expanded risks must still be acknowledged and addressed. Organizations cannot effectively manage MAD risks if they are not aware of being at risk to start with.
In this white paper, Checkmarx dives into the security risks that MAD brings to the surface. Developers and security professionals can use the information contained in it as a starting point for further discussion, risk analysis and risk management.
