1. Application Security Maturity and Frameworks – Francesco Cipollone – ASW #239
Application security is messy and is getting messier. Modern application security teams are struggling to identify what's more important to fix. Cloud security and application security is getting squeezed all together. Modern vulnerability maturity needs a new approach and guidance. Vulnerability management framework and mature defect management is often overlooked as organizations tend to identify issues and stop there.
The devil is usually in the details and time gets burned down in identifying who needs to solve what where. Vulnerability Management Maturity Framework has been created to address that.

2. Mitigating AppSec Risk with Systematic Testing and Effective Attack Mitigation – Karl Triebes, Patrick Vandenberg – ASW #239
Without visibility into your entire web application attack surface and a continuous find and fix strategy, dangerous threats can expose your organization's blind spots and create risk. Invicti analyzes common web application vulnerabilities across thousands of assets yearly and releases the Invicti AppSec Indicator for a holistic view of application vulnerability trends from automated scan results across regions. In this interview, Invicti's Patrick Vandenberg zooms in on the vulnerabilities plaguing organizations, providing insight into this year's report trends, and guidance on how CISOs and AppSec program leaders can create an environment for their teams that mitigates risk.

Flaws in the design and implementation of an application can create business logic vulnerabilities that allow attackers to manipulate legitimate functionality to achieve a malicious goal. What’s more, API-related security incidents exploit business logic, the programming that manages communication between the application and the database. In this discussion, Karl Triebes shares what you need to know about business logic attacks to effectively protect against them.
