OpenText commissioned Dark Reading to conduct a survey about the use of ITDR-related technologies. This survey of 117 IT and security professionals reveals the state of identity threat detection and response at large. The results cover:

•  How security teams work together to implement ITDR 
•  Where they are in their journey 
•  What to expect in the next two years

The State of Identity Threat Detection & Response (ITDR)

This survey of 300 industry participants and decision makers reveals what secure information management looks like in 2024 and beyond.

State of Secure Information Management

IDC and OpenText Fortify will explore the peril and promise of generative AI in application security such as: GenAI’s ability to improve cybersecurity but introduce new security risks, Securing GenAI Applications, Distinct Security Vulnerabilities in AI, Open Source and Third-Party Models, Enhancing Application Security with GenAI, and Considering OpenText Fortify Application Security.

The Peril and Promise of Generative AI in Application Security

Addressing security vulnerabilities is a crucial yet burdensome task for developers. It typically requires considerable time, extensive research, and frequent context-switching. Understanding the unique context of each vulnerability is essential before devising and implementing an effective solution. Discover Fortify Aviator, your new AI-powered ally in the realm of Static Application Security Testing (SAST).

Open Source License Compliance and Security: Challenges, Opportunities & Trends

33% of companies like yours plan to invest in Generative AI (GenAI) to support application and software development this year, according to TechTarget and Enterprise Strategy Group’s latest GenAI Pulse Study, with another 28% focused on GenAI in cybersecurity.

Beyond mere code generation, GenAI has the potential to streamline security alert prioritization and attack mitigation. But GenAI is not without its complications, as its own training data is also subject to attacks.

In this session at BrightTALK’s “Advancing Application Security Practices” Summit, Frans van Buul, Senior Product Manager at OpenText, will shed further light on GenAI’s impact on software development and app security, with particular attention to:

• Usage of GenAI within app security tooling
• Tactics to secure decentralized apps (DApps) in the web 3.0 landscape
• Next-generation threats that static app security testing (SAST) can secure
 
Join the discussion to fortify your app security and prepare for threats on the rise.

Fortify Your APIs to Make Sure They're Battle Ready

One of the biggest software challenges companies face today is open-source compliance. This means finding good open source that lives up to internal policies, both when it comes to licenses but also the security of a component. How can one make better decisions when bringing in components, so there’s no need to fix non-compliant or abandoned dependencies down the line?

We would like to welcome you to our webinar, “Benefits of Automated Open-Source Intake Management - Featuring Forrester”, where we will go through the most common challenges organizations face when using open-source components. All of this is backed up by data from a 2024 commissioned Forrester Consulting study conducted on behalf of OpenText.

Key Topics Covered:

1. Tackling the challenges of open-source compliance at intake.
2. What is something most companies struggle with and how you can get ahead of the curve.
3. Q&A Session: Get your questions answered by our expert panel during the live Q&A session.

By viewing this on-demand webinar, you will gain the knowledge and insights needed to initiate and strengthen your open-source compliance. Sign up today to secure your spot and stay ahead of the competition.

AI + Unsecured Data = Financial Risk

Weak passwords are notoriously vulnerable to phishing, brute force attacks, and social engineering. Increasingly, enterprises are removing them altogether, to eliminate these attack vectors and make it significantly harder for unauthorized users to gain access.

This webinar (March 12, 2024) explore a new survey from Dark Reading and OpenText on the use of traditional credentials among industry professionals and their urgency to move beyond them. 

We’ll also cover the benefits IT and Security teams can expect by adopting a passwordless paradigm.

Raising access security without driving users crazy

The application security market continues to evolve as organizations recognize that security risk needs to balance with business imperatives. Fortify partnered with DarkReading to interview hundreds of AppSec professionals and developers to discover the key challenges this ever changing landscape has created.

Based off the survey and research data, it's evident that regardless of the pace of change in technology transformation (the explosion of APIs, microservices, IaC innovation and cloud technology) there’s still a lot of room for maturity and growth in most organizations.

Did you know, that while the majority (57%) of organizations are implementing DevSecOps, almost 3 in 10 (29%) haven’t yet but plan to in the next year. Crazy as it sounds, a full 14% are not doing so and have no plans to.

Static application security testing (SAST) is becoming the norm. (56% use SAST and perform appsec assessments). But dynamic analysis (DAST) is still lagging at only 45% implementation.

There is still over 30% of organizations looking to implement MAST and almost half (46%) of organizations we surveyed are planning implementation of SCA.

Join us as we explore the key findings, implementation challenges, factors influencing tool adoption, and key take-aways.

Special note: Martin Hell (from Debricked) will be joining us to share their research on the State of Open Source Security.
