Application security refers to the process of securing software applications and their underlying infrastructure from various security threats and vulnerabilities throughout the software development lifecycle (SDLC). It encompasses practices, tools, and techniques aimed at identifying, mitigating, and preventing security risks to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of applications and data. Key aspects of application security include secure coding practices, vulnerability assessments, penetration testing, authentication and authorization mechanisms, encryption, and ongoing monitoring and response to security incidents. By prioritizing application security, organizations can protect against potential cyberattacks, data breaches, and compliance violations, ultimately safeguarding their reputation and customer trust.
