Summary

The difference between Product Security and Application Security is that Product Security focuses on securing a product throughout its entire lifecycle, including all software and hardware, whereas Application Security secures each individual application as it goes through development and maintenance. Product Security encompasses physical and virtual security, while Application Security primarily deals with securing the code that makes up an app. Both approaches have distinct objectives, scopes, risks, measures, and challenges, and are essential to a complete security strategy.
