Column Information Security Announces Partner Agreement with Veracode

Lombard, IL, November 19, 2015 --(PR.com)-- Column Information Security, a leading provider of information security technology and services, today announced it has signed a partnership agreement with Veracode, an application security solutions provider and leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant since 2010. Through this agreement, Column will leverage Veracode to enhance its information security solution offerings, adding a robust, cloud-based application security solution to Column Information Securities’ portfolio, complimenting privileged account security and identity and access management.

The partnership with Veracode allows Column to provide customers a simpler and more scalable way to secure web, mobile and third-party applications across the software development lifecycle without slowing innovation including:

· Secure Web Application Development - using a scalable cloud-based platform that secures all applications across the Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC) — from code development to pre-production testing and production.
· Web Perimeter Security – discovers all web-facing applications associated with a customer - including cloud-hosted sites, temporary marketing sites – and performs a comprehensive deep scan to quickly identifying highly exploitable vulnerabilities such as those found in the OWASP Top 10 and CWE/SANS Top 25.
· Software Supply Chain Security - ensuring all third-party supplied code is up to a customer’s internal security standards by working with the vendors directly to assess and remediate their code, and by helping implement a governance process across the software supply chain.
· Mobile Application Security - behavioral analysis dynamically analyzes an application’s real-time behavior – in a sandbox – to identify risky actions such as data exfiltration to suspicious locations. This security intelligence is also integrated with MDM solutions to enable enforcement of corporate BYOD policies. Static analysis is also used to identify malware and coding vulnerabilities such as information leakage.

“There is an undeniable trend of increasing criminal and hacktivist attacks on weak enterprise applications. It’s critical for organizations to rapidly detect and remediate critical vulnerabilities before cyberattackers can exploit them. This partnership now allows us to offer our customers a simpler and more scalable way to do that,” said Bill Amedeo, Vice President at Column Information Security.
