Best Practices for Continuous Vulnerability Management

Continuous vulnerability management is crucial for mitigating cybersecurity risks associated with open-source supply chain security incidents, GenAI code, and the rapid emergence of cybersecurity threats. Establishing a proactive security culture involves embedding security practices in the development lifecycle, optimizing processes like shift-left security and automated dependency management, and providing continuous education and training for developers and security teams. Automating security workflows can be achieved by leveraging CI/CD pipelines, integrating Snyk tools, and implementing continuous monitoring. Collaboration between developers and security teams is essential for a proactive AppSec strategy, which can be facilitated through shared goals, regular security reviews, and the appointment of security champions within development teams.
