NowSecure announces the release of NowSecure Workstation 6.0. The turnkey hardware and software kit that empowers analysts to quickly conduct deep mobile application security assessments of Android and iOS apps and generate customized reports with actionable results users can trust. Traditional mobile app penetration testing can consume at least two weeks of manual effort and requires ample expertise and an abundance of open-source tools. NowSecure Workstation reduces testing time from weeks to mere hours, driving dramatic 10x productivity gains and scalability.
This week was an interesting and noteworthy one for the app security world because Gartner simultaneously released two key industry reports on July 27, 2020, that reflect the intersection of mobile application security risk and mobile DevSecOps trends. For more than a decade, we have worked with mobile app security and dev teams to grow their mobile app security programs and have witnessed these trends firsthand.
In keeping with our history of innovation and commitment to security, we are pleased to announce that NowSecure has achieved a significant milestone in completing a SOC 2 security audit. The report attests that NowSecure has controls which are suitably designed and effectively operated to meet our commitment to customer security. NowSecure is the first mobile app security vendor to achieve SOC 2 compliance.
Mobile apps are critical to enabling the U.S. federal agencies such as the U.S Department of Defense to meet their mission. Core to that mission is ensuring a high security testing bar for the mobile apps they build and use. Until now, completing that security compliance testing has been a complicated, time-consuming manual process that was built for web apps, not mobile apps. Today, NowSecure is announcing the world’s first automated NIAP Mobile App Vetting solution that supports NIAP v1.3 Mobile App Vetting Protection Profile for Application Software.
In accordance with our Pandemic Plan, NowSecure is taking proactive steps to help ensure the health and safety of our personnel, customers and partners while maintaining continuity of our organization operations. We are very focused on serving and supporting our customers through these challenging times. As companies move to remote work, mobile app security and privacy is now more important than ever. The attackers will not stop due to COVID-19 and sadly will attempt to exploit the situation.
As a longtime innovator of automated mobile appsec testing software and services, NowSecure continues to embrace emerging technology by delivering the world’s first Interactive Application Security Testing (IAST) technology purpose-built for mobile. Sometimes called DAST 2.0 or the next generation of DAST by the security industry, this advancement provides security analysts and app developers with greater visibility into app vulnerabilities and privacy issues.
NowSecure enables organizations to leverage Microsoft tools such as Azure DevOps, Visual Studio, Visual Studio App Center and GitHub to ship software faster. Over the years, NowSecure has helped organizations automate security and privacy testing of mobile apps in their DevOps continuous delivery toolchains. We’re pleased to announce the availability of a new pre-built connector for Azure DevOps and Azure Pipeline CI/CD tools — the NowSecure Extension for Microsoft Azure DevOps. Devs can find the Azure DevOps extension in the Microsoft Visual Studio Marketplace. Formerly known as Visual Studio Team Services, Microsoft Azure DevOps provides developers with a suite of integrated tools.
The NowSecure Enterprise Mobile App Risk Management Service can give organizations peace of mind by filling the mobile app security gap not covered by MDM. Offloading the chore of vetting thousands of third-party and supply chain mobile apps for security vulnerabilities and privacy flaws frees agencies to focus on work that advances their mission.
Like many of our customers, NowSecure has also embarked on a DevOps journey to shift left and speed the release cycle of our software. Here at the company, product management, security researchers, developers and devops engineers collaborate to produce our automated mobile appsec testing solutions and understand many of the challenges you face. The following […]
The purpose of this post is to explain how automated mobile app security testing on the most recent versions of iOS on Apple standard production devices is now possible, with Jailed Testing, via NowSecure Gadget technology on NowSecure Workstation.
