Application vulnerability management best practices

Application vulnerability management is a comprehensive approach to identifying, classifying, remediating, and mitigating application vulnerabilities. To adapt to the evolving development landscape, security teams must strike a balance between old and new techniques. Vulnerability management plays a crucial role in application security but falls short due to its limitations, including traditional approaches seeing each vulnerability as existing in a vacuum, lacking full application context, relying solely on standard scores such as CVSS, requiring developers to leave their native environment for scanning, and aiming to consolidate all vulnerabilities into one view. To overcome these limitations, teams can leverage automation, empowering developers to play a part in vulnerability management, and adopting a contextual, risk-based, and developer-first approach like Snyk's security testing and application security posture management.
