Vulnerability scanning alone doesn’t cut it anymore. While it’s long been a core security practice, scanning tools can’t tell you which vulnerabilities are exploitable, how attackers would target them, or which ones pose real risk. This article explores the limitations of vulnerability scanning, the shortfalls of traditional vulnerability management, and why organizations must adopt a risk-based, context-driven approach to application security. Learn how to prioritize based on exploitability, integrate security across the SDLC, and move toward continuous, intelligent threat detection.

APIs power modern applications but also expose critical vulnerabilities that attackers often exploit. This article explores why API security testing is essential, how breaches like MOVEit happened, and what organizations can do to protect their APIs. It also highlights the differences between REST, SOAP, and GraphQL security, and how tools like OX Security help ensure complete visibility and protection across the API landscape.

Application security isn’t just a technical concern — it’s a business priority. OX Security’s enhanced executive reports help bridge the gap between AppSec teams and leadership by turning complex security data into clear, actionable business insights. With high-level summaries, dynamic visualizations, and tailored risk analysis, these reports empower executives to prioritize security investments and align AppSec strategies with business goals.

Modern AppSec teams are overwhelmed with alerts but still struggle to answer the one question that matters: What should we fix first? This article explores how shifting from raw data to contextual insights helps prioritize the most impactful vulnerabilities, align security efforts with business goals, and move application security from a cost center to a strategic enabler.

A Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) is the key to understanding what’s inside your software—and securing it. This article explores the growing importance of SBOMs in cybersecurity, the difference between static and dynamic SBOMs, how AI is transforming their effectiveness, and best practices for managing software supply chain risk.

The disconnect between AppSec and development teams is more than a collaboration issue—it’s a major business risk. This article explores the root causes of this divide, from misaligned goals to disconnected toolchains, and offers practical strategies for uniting teams. Learn how to embed security into the developer workflow, prioritize risk over noise, and foster a culture of shared responsibility and continuous improvement.

Web application security testing is more critical than ever as enterprises face growing threats and regulatory demands. This article breaks down essential components of an effective testing program—defining scope, blending automated and manual tools, integrating into the SDLC, and prioritizing risk. Learn how modern approaches like ASPM, AI, and continuous monitoring can help security teams stay ahead of evolving vulnerabilities and protect enterprise applications.
