Fortify moves software security into the cloud
Fortify Software has taken its security platform into the cloud with the launch of its hosted Fortify Vendor Security Management system.
The new software-as-a-service (SaaS) application allows customers to use Fortify's analysis technologies to inspect the security of applications when the source code is not available from commercial software vendors.
"Virtually every organisation today is built and operated on software," said Barmak Meftah, senior vice president of products and technology at Fortify. "Implementing software security assurance is imperative to mitigating the business risk associated with vulnerable applications, whether built in-house, outsourced or acquired from commercial vendors."
