PRESS RELEASE
PARAMUS, New Jersey–(COMMERCIAL WIRE)– CheckMarxleader in cloud-native application security, integrated its enterprise application security platform, Checkmarx One, with leading cloud security provider Wiz and came together the Wiz Integrations (WIN) program. The integration enables enterprise customers to approach application security (AppSec) from code to the cloud and transform how AppSec and development teams prioritize and remediate cloud-native vulnerabilities by enriching AppSec findings with runtime insights .
Wiz’s cloud-native application protection platform (CNAPP) provides comprehensive coverage of cloud environments. Checkmarx One correlates the cloud security context of runtime environments with application security findings to prioritize and provide actionable insights into which vulnerabilities are most critical. This unique approach allows teams to focus on what has the greatest business impact, thus improving developer productivity and efficiency.
“With more than 90% of companies knowingly pushing vulnerable code into production, there is strong demand to change how we approach AppSec in a cloud-native environment,” said David Dewaele, Senior Product Partnership Manager at Checkmarx. “Integrating cloud security insights into every stage and layer of AppSec allows security and development teams to focus on the most critical vulnerabilities first, while aiding the actionability of cloud security teams.”
“We are excited to welcome Checkmarx to the WIN platform,” said Oron Noah, head of product extensibility and partnerships at Wiz. “Together with Checkmarx, we provide customers with security insights throughout development and the cloud lifecycle. Checkmarx provides us with unparalleled expertise in application security which, combined with Wiz’s CNAPP solution, allows us to offer a comprehensive approach to protecting applications and infrastructure in the cloud.”
The partnership between Checkmarx and Wiz introduces a “Shift Left, Shield Right” strategy, promising a holistic security approach that extends from code to cloud. Wiz helps by providing a large inventory of cloud resources and crucial runtime context, while Checkmarx identifies and facilitates remediation of software application vulnerabilities. Together, they offer a unified solution that aligns Wiz’s cloud asset inventory with Checkmarx’s assessment of applications and source code repositories, providing runtime context during development and operations as applications are monitored in production.
