The Future is Bleak

Cyber attacks have increased by 38% year-over-year, with ransomware attacks occurring every 11 seconds
Average cost of a data breach has reached $4.88 million globally, with some breaches costing hundreds of millions
Web applications face an average of 94 attacks per day, targeting common vulnerabilities like injection flaws and broken authentication
Supply chain attacks have tripled in the past year, affecting thousands of downstream organizations through compromised dependencies
88% of successful cyber attacks are due to human error, highlighting the critical need for automated security measures

Current Threat Landscape

OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities remain prevalent, with injection attacks and broken access control leading the list
Modern web applications use dozens of third-party libraries, each potentially introducing security risks
DevOps speed often conflicts with security thoroughness, creating gaps in the development lifecycle
Remote work has expanded attack surfaces, making traditional perimeter security insufficient
Security skills shortage means many organizations lack dedicated security expertise to properly assess risks

Web Application Vulnerabilities on the Rise

Content Security Policy (CSP) prevents XSS attacks by controlling which resources browsers can load and execute
HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) forces secure HTTPS connections and prevents protocol downgrade attacks
X-Frame-Options and X-Content-Type-Options headers protect against clickjacking and MIME-type confusion attacks
Referrer Policy controls how much referrer information is shared, protecting user privacy and preventing information leakage
Implementation is straightforward and provides immediate protection with minimal performance impact

Essential HTTP Security Headers

Example: Before

Example: After

Subresource Integrity (SRI) uses cryptographic hashes to verify that external resources haven't been tampered with
npm audit automatically scans Node.js dependencies for known vulnerabilities and provides upgrade recommendations
Dependency scanning catches compromised packages before they enter your codebase, preventing supply chain attacks
Regular dependency updates and security patches reduce exposure to known vulnerabilities
Automated dependency monitoring provides continuous visibility into your application's security posture

Subresource Integrity & Dependency Security

SonarQube and Sonar Cloud provide comprehensive code quality and security analysis, catching vulnerabilities during development
Semgrep offers advanced static analysis with custom rules for specific security patterns and compliance requirements
Integration with CI/CD pipelines ensures every code change is automatically scanned for security issues
Real-time feedback helps developers learn secure coding practices while they work
Shift-left security approach catches vulnerabilities early when they're cheapest and easiest to fix

Static Code Analysis & Advanced Scanning
