By Zachary Malone, SE Academy Manager at Palo Alto Networks The term “shift left” is a reference to the Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC) that describes the phases of the process developers follow to create an application. Shifting security left in your SDLC program is a priority that executives should be giving their focus to.

In the early days of Windows operating systems up through Windows XP, almost any program a user would launch would have administrator-level privileges. It was assumed that every program, by default, needs this level. Anomaly detection tools can help save time or detect unusual patterns. And, yes, we are ignoring it.

In the software development life cycle (SDLC), 85% of leaking secrets come from developers sharing information on public personal accounts. This goes to show just how important it is to have the proper training, procedures, and tools in place when it comes to combatting secret sprawl and leaks in your SDLC.

To turn a business into an agile, flexible, and adaptable entity, key principles must be established in the organization's use of technology, its processes, coaching programs, underlying ethos, values, and culture. Yet they are never one-and-done; organizations and team leaders need to practice what they preach.

This is Part 1 of a three-part series tackling the topic of generative AI tools. In the realm of generative AI tools, such as Language Learning Models (LLMs), it is essential to take a comprehensive approach toward the development and deployment. Why should AI get a pass on S (Secure) SDLC methodologies?

In that conversation, one analyst shared that companies that implement fuzz testing programs never rip them out. This is a bold statement, especially in the world of application security where strategies are around tool augmentation and diversification, leading to frequent rotation of tools within product security programs.

The results of fuzzing tools are much more significant than a SAST or an IAST, which has false positives.

When looking for the ideal fuzz testing tool, Shoenfield shares his opinion on what’s needed: straightforward, integrates naturally in the SDLC/IDE, automates processes, delivers understandable and reliable results, indicates faulty code, and is affordable. Oh, did he also mention that your attackers are fuzzing your code?

Mayhem combines fuzzing with ML techniques such as symbolic execution, a program analysis technique that determines what inputs cause each part of a program to execute. Fuzzing is a powerful tool for detecting vulnerabilities in software. Mayhem uses fuzzing along with other techniques to find vulnerabilities in software.

” If we continue to rely on the same assumptions and apply simplified approaches to this complex problem, we only add the risk of adding yet another technique to the mix, forcing onto vendors another tool they must not only add, but also maintain as a part of their larger application security testing program. This is undesirable.

SAST does not use the actual executable/binary for analysis; it typically uses a representation of your program. And it will find defects in paths that the program would never actually implement in a live system. Of these defects, we can typically expect approximately 7.5k - 25k to be FPs (and that’s if your SAST tool is good).

Many R&D teams have come to this realization and have armed their developers with static application security testing (SAST) tools. While SAST have their place in the SDLC and offer tremendous benefits, they unfortunately are not the ideal technique for automation and autonomous security testing.

A benchmarking study by the NSA Center for Assured Software found that the average SAST tool covers only 8 out of 13 weakness classes and finds only 22 percent of flaws in each weakness class. Based on these numbers, the average SAST tool is likely to find only 14 percent of the vulnerabilities in an application’s code.
