Leading AppSec provider scheduled to present new PHP Agent capabilities on April 13
Contrast Security (Contrast), the leader in code security that empowers developers to secure-as-they code, today announced that Contrast’s Assess and SCA services are now able to see accurate interactive application security testing (IAST) analysis of their PHP applications with little noise from false positives and no requirement for security expertise.
“Contrast Assess for PHP analyzes PHP web applications at runtime for library usage and vulnerability detection,” said Sanjay Ramnath, Vice President of Product Management at Contrast Security. “We’re excited to roll out our newest agent to PHP application users so that they can receive the same real-time, accurate results through their preferred language.”
PHP represents a substantial share of server-side application development, but has been underserved by security automation tools in the past. Contrast PHP support is now generally available for customers looking to observe relevant function calls, trace data through the call stack, and determine when user-controlled data has been handled by the application in insecure ways. Contrast now detects a wide variety of vulnerabilities in PHP applications, including SQL injection, OS command injection, path traversal, and reflected XSS.
Brian Sowers, Senior Technical Product Manager is set to present Contrast’s support for PHP during the Live Weekly Demo on Wednesday, April 13, 2022 at 9AM PST / 12PM EST / 5PM GMT / 7PM IST.
