Legit Security has launched a new dashboard for its application security posture management (ASPM) platform aimed at preventing vulnerabilities before software deployment.

The Legit AppSec risk prevention dashboard is designed to help reduce the time and costs associated with addressing vulnerabilities by identifying and preventing issues during the development process. This proactive approach enables organizations to expedite their software delivery while enhancing security measures.

Rather than solely relying on traditional “shift left” methodologies, Legit's dashboard allows companies to stop potential issues before they reach final releases. This is essential in a fast-paced software development environment where security measures can often interrupt workflow.

Legit’s platform addresses challenges in software development, particularly for teams lacking adequate practices such as code review, training, and vulnerability scanning during early stages. By mitigating risks prior to deployment, firms can reduce costs and support a steady software release cycle.

The dashboard identifies crucial security gaps within development workflows, such as missing security analyses, and provides insights to help teams build secure practices accountable through gamification and automation. This encourages developers to adhere to security standards from the inception of the development process.

Furthermore, by leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) insights, teams can swiftly identify and address high-risk vulnerabilities that significantly affect the organization’s operations. The platform streamlines vulnerability identification and management, which is critical for maintaining operational efficiency in software development.

Liav Caspi, co-founder and CTO of Legit Security, stated, “With our newest dashboard, we are not only helping our customers remediate the vulnerabilities they find but also stop them from happening in the first place. Companies need to equip developers with the right tools and information to prevent issues in apps before they are merged or deployed.”

The release of this dashboard follows previous enhancements to Legit's ASPM platform, including root cause remediation and integrating disparate data points for better risk management. Organizations can now effectively apply security guards that have the most significant impact on their development processes.
