The Hidden Costs of Self-Signed SSL Certificates
The following is external content provided as a free resource for blog readers.

Even when business is booming, smart companies always have an eye on the bottom line. Security is not usually one of the first places companies look to trim expenses, but some IT professionals believe that they can easily lower costs by eliminating third-party Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) Certification Authorities (CAs) from the budget equation. This paper explores the true Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) for self-signed SSL certificates, including a side-by-side comparison of a self-signed architecture versus working with a third-party SSL vendor. Before a company decides to use self-signed certificates, these issues deserve careful consideration. Request Free! |

Reduce Your Open Source Security Risk: Strategies, Tactics, and Tools
The following is external content provided as a free resource for blog readers.

There’s no doubt that open source software (OSS) is here to stay, but that doesn’t mean that developers can feel free to use all and any open source software components with no thought to the vulnerabilities and security issues they may introduce into development projects. The fact is, there’s no such thing as bulletproof, bug-free, automatically license compliant, and easily auditable software. Not in the open source world and not in the commercial off the shelf (COTS) world. So, it’s incumbent on developers, project team leaders, IT managers, CIOs and CTOs to ensure that there are sound strategies and tactics making it easy to acquire, distribute, use, monitor, analyze, and keep track of open source software to reduce the risk of vulnerable and buggy software and applications to an absolute minimum.

Defend Against Injection-based Attacks
The following is external content provided as a free resource for blog readers.

Security weaknesses today occur most often in software that is accessible from a user’s desktop, tablet, or mobile device. Web-based applications, network-enabled or controlled devices, and widely-used mobile software are the applications most targeted. This is followed by infrastructure applications such as operating systems, web servers, and browser-based software including plug-ins and extensions. The cause of these weaknesses typically stems from the developer not anticipating how the software could be misused and made to perform actions it wasn’t designed to do. The root problem is often a lack of secure input handling to block any application input or content that has not first been scanned for and had any harmful aspects filtered out. Request Free! |
