'Cider Security' is a new application security platform from the information services company of the same name, Cider Security. Cider Security raised $38 million USD in a series A funding round to bring its services to a wider breadth of users.
Cider Security focuses on improving security throughout the entire software development life cycle (SDLC). The application helps users identify security risks in code development, application deployment, and the overall environment of the application. Cider Security is intended to provide end-to-end security recognition and threat prevention support for the back-end of an application.
The application was created to address several trends in application security, such as how 45% of vulnerabilities are discovered too late, 48% of developers push potentially vulnerable code, and 54% of developers push incomplete code due to time constraints. Cider Security will ideally, help developers address security issues without losing precious time.
