Modernized application security (AppSec) is a game-changer for financial services companies as they prioritize innovative customer experiences and adopt fast-paced development practices, but struggle with outdated security controls that can't keep up with the speed of development. To address this challenge, modernized AppSec enables developer adoption by prioritizing compatibility with today's development environments, empowering developers to find and fix vulnerabilities with minimal context shifts or extra steps. Modernized AppSec also matches developer speed at scale by leveraging fast scan times and high accuracy, such as AI-powered tools that can check new lines of code in seconds. Additionally, modernized AppSec better aligns with a variety of tech stacks, allowing security teams to seamlessly plug into existing development pipelines and prepare for future growth. By adopting modernized AppSec practices and technologies, financial services companies can ensure their application security keeps pace with development, ultimately supporting the business's bottom line.
