RedMonk: Democratizing AppSec with Contrast Security

In this session of RedMonk conversations. Senior analyst Rachel Stephens is joined by Contrast Security co-founder and CTO Jeff Williams for a lively conversation about the Application Security (AppSec) market. Together they explore how expectations to keep code secure have shifted between security and application development teams, and what that ultimately means for the future of security products in this ever-changing market. Additionally, Jeff also provides an expanded view of how Contrast Security has begun to support this shift by launching its free developer security tool, CodeSec by Contrast, and just how easy it is to get started.

Test benchmarks are nice, but, naturally, Contrast built its platform to deliver speed and accuracy in real-world applications. This is why we have released our free-to-use developer security tool, CodeSec. CodeSec is powered by the same engine as the enterprise version of the Contrast Platform, so developers can rely on the same level of performance and accuracy as our enterprise customers, directly on their local machine. Whether you’re a front-end developer specifically focused on client-side code, a back-end developer or a full-stack developer touching every element of the application stack, you have the world’s fastest and most accurate codec-scanning solution at your disposal — for free!
