Contrast Security (Contrast), the code security platform built for developers and trusted by security, today announced it has been recognized as a Visionary by Gartner in the new “Magic Quadrant for Application Security Testing” for 2023. We believe the recognition further validates that the Contrast Secure Code Platform is a strong fit for organizations looking to improve their application security posture.
“The application security testing market continues to be saturated with solutions that lack context and overwhelm DevSecOps teams with false positives,” said Steven Phillips, Vice President of Product Marketing at Contrast Security. “We’ve listened to feedback from our customers and have put a focus on delivering a comprehensive platform that helps overcome these challenges. It’s encouraging to see our position within the Magic Quadrant due to our Ability to Execute and the Completeness of our Vision. We provide customers with the tools they need to deploy real-time security tools accurately.”
The Contrast Secure Code Platform provides customers the ability to “Shift Smart” allowing DevSecOps teams to apply security testing throughout the development process across the entire software development lifecycle. As the only unified code security platform on the market, Contrast leverages the power of instrumentation to embed security within the application’s runtime. This solves the challenges of legacy application security tools present in modern software environments. Furthermore, this inside-outside approach allows organizations to very cleanly combine results from the various tools, coordinate actions between them and write and execute complex security and testing policies with very little overhead visible to developers. Those are the features that more complex offerings often fail to achieve.
