contrast assess

interactive application security testing (iast) solution
A new kind of security designed for the way software is created

BUSINESSES CAN FOCUS ON WHAT MATTERS TO THEM, REMAINING HIGHLY AGILE, WITHOUT PUTTING THE ORGANISATION AT RISK.

Contrast Assess is a revolutionary application security testing solution that infuses software with vulnerability assessment capabilities so that security flaws are automatically identified.

IDENTIFY VULNERABILITIES AT DEVOPS SPEED
Resolve security issues minutes after installation by integrating security into your toolchain.

Because Contrast agents monitor code and report from inside the application, developers can finally find and fix vulnerabilities without requiring security experts. That frees up security teams to focus on providing governance.

OBTAIN THE MOST ACCURATE RESULTS
Contrast Assess deploys an intelligent agent that instruments the application with smart sensors.

The code is analysed in real-time from within the application. Instrumentation minimises the false positives that slow down developers and security teams.

SIMPLIFY AND INTEGRATE APPLICATION SECURITY
Resolve security issues minutes after installation by integrating security into your toolchain.

Contrast Assess integrates seamlessly into the software life cycle and into the tool sets that development and operations teams are already using, including native integration with ChatOps, ticketing systems and CI/CD tools, and a RESTful API.

CONTINUOUS COVERAGE ACROSS YOUR PORTFOLIO
Contrast Assess delivers vulnerability assessment across an entire application portfolio.

Results are delivered continuously so development teams can be agile – confidently releasing software as fast as they want, knowing it is secure.

AUTOMATIC RISK DETECTION IN CODE LIBRARIES
Did you know that as much as 80% of software code comes from open source and third-party libraries?

Contrast automatically discovers third-party libraries, triggering alerts to known risks. Then Contrast analyses libraries to discover new risks, and provides critical versioning and usage information to help development teams remediate risks.

LEARN HOW INSTRUMENTATION WORKS FROM THE INSIDE OUT.

Discover how Contrast Assess works by deploying an intelligent agent that instruments an application with smart sensors to analyse code in real time from within the application. Learn how instrumentation works to find vulnerabilities in custom and open-source code and how it compares to legacy application security approaches.

WHAT YOU GET
WITH CONTRAST SECURITY

CONTRAST SECURITY IS THE MOST ACCURATE, FASTEST, AND SCALABLE APPLICATION SECURITY SOLUTION IN THE MARKET.

ACCURATE

Unlike legacy application security testing solutions, Contrast produces accurate results without dependence on application security experts. Accuracy comes from Contrast's patented Deep Security Instrumentation technology, which integrates the most effective elements of interactive (IAST), static (SAST), and dynamic (DAST) application security testing technology, software composition analysis (SCA), and configuration analysis, and delivers them directly to applications.

CONTINUOUS

Contrast produces a continuous stream of accurate vulnerability and compliance risk information whenever and wherever software is run. Development, QA, and Security teams get results as they develop and test software, enabling them to find and fix security flaws early in the software life cycle, when they are easiest and cheapest to remediate.

INTEGRATED

Contrast integrates seamlessly into the software life cycle and the toolsets that development and operations teams are already using. This includes native integration with IDE, ChatOps, ticketing systems and CI/CD tools, and a RESTful API. This seamless integration makes Contrast a perfect fit with modern software development techniques, including Agile, DevOps, and modern software architecture and deployment models, including containers, microservices, APIs, cloud-native, etc.

SCALABLE

Contrast scales because it instruments application security into each application, delivering security and compliance assessment across an entire application portfolio. Every running application continuously produces results in parallel. This model is very different from legacy approaches that require application security expertsa human element that adds an extra step and does not scale.

“WHEN WE INSTRUMENTED APPLICATIONS AT THE UK’S LARGEST GOVERNMENT DEPARTMENT WITH CONTRAST ASSESS, IT WAS LIKE HANDING OUR PROJECT TEAMS AN INCREDIBLY POWERFUL DEBUGGING AGENT CONTAINING THE SUM TOTAL OF APPLICATION SECURITY KNOWLEDGE.”
