Veracode Extends Package Firewall Reach to Microsoft Artifacts

Veracode has introduced an extended package firewall that now includes Microsoft Artifacts, a significant move in securing software development in the DevOps space. This enhancement enables organizations to safeguard their applications from vulnerabilities right from the source. By integrating these capabilities into Microsoft's vast ecosystem, Veracode empowers developers to maintain high security standards while adopting agile methodologies.

The integration with Microsoft Artifacts means that DevOps teams can manage package security more effectively, ensuring that all dependencies are scanned for vulnerabilities before being deployed. This proactive approach helps mitigate risks associated with third-party components, a common challenge many organizations face today. With the new package firewall, Veracode enhances its offerings to provide comprehensive scanning and visibility for applications built within Microsoft's environment.

In a landscape where the pace of development is rapidly increasing, maintaining secure software is paramount. Veracode’s tools enable teams to incorporate security as a vital part of their continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipelines. By providing seamless integration and automated testing, Veracode supports DevOps practices that prioritize rapid delivery without compromising on security, thereby fostering a culture of shared responsibility among developers and security teams.
