For Developers

Ship secure software, faster.

 

 

| Fix bugs fast, ship faster

Developers are under constant pressure to deliver new features at high speed – without introducing security issues. With RedShield’s web application and API security service, you don’t have to choose between speed and security. We integrate with your development pipeline to achieve rapid time-to-market without compromising on application security. And if a vulnerability is discovered, relax – we’ve got it covered, fixing it on-the-fly without altering your code or affecting how your software functions, until you have time to fix it permanently.

 

Focus on coding, not firefighting

Reacting to security bugs and exploits can pull you away from building new features. RedShield changes that dynamic. When a vulnerability is found in your application, our engineers create a custom in-flight security patch that intercepts the offending traffic. This edge-based code object triggers on the specific event that would exploit the bug, transforming requests or responses as needed to neutralize the issue. In other words, we make the exploit ineffective – while you continue meeting your release deadlines.  

 

Accelerate your CI/CD securely

In a perfect DevSecOps world, every sprint would include time to address security findings, but in reality that’s not always possible. RedShield works in the background, applying in-flight patching for vulnerabilities as they are found, so you can keep pushing code through your CI/CD pipeline and schedule remediation on your timeline. Development teams can maintain velocity without leaving known issues exposed.

 

Comprehensive threat coverage

RedShield doesn’t just fix known vulnerabilities; we also provide broad protection against active threats. Our multi-layered defense mitigates OWASP Top 10 attacks, account takeovers, malicious bots, distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attempts, and other advanced exploits targeting your apps. All attack traffic and mitigations are tracked in real time, and our 24/7 expert defense team is on guard to protect your applications and APIs.

 

In-flight security patching on demand

Got penetration test findings or scanner results full of vulnerabilities? Just hand them to RedShield. We will deploy in-flight patches for each exploitable issue, customized to your application’s behavior. These patches will be up quickly and remain in place for as long as needed. With a library of over 14,000 pre-written patches (and counting), there’s a good chance we already have a fix for the problem in question – and if not, we’ll write one. All of this happens with zero code changes on your end. In fact, we don’t even require access to your source code, so we can protect third-party applications just as easily.

 

No impact on your code or users

RedShield’s solution operates externally, meaning it requires no integration into your build and has no effect on legitimate functionality. We can secure and remediate vulnerabilities without ever touching your repository. Your users won’t notice anything except that your application remains secure and available. Meanwhile, you get detailed reports on attacks and patches, giving you full visibility without the headache of managing the defenses.

Focus on releasing code to production, not urgent security issues.

Reacting to cyberthreats and ongoing security issues is a distraction which impacts your ability to deliver new code – yet it’s essential. 

Shields are nano blocks of code designed to fix an otherwise exploitable vulnerability in an application. When a vulnerability is identified, our engineers determine the triggering event in the application traffic flow and craft a shield that triggers on the event. The shields transform requests and responses in the traffic flow, making the vulnerability undiscoverable or nullifying the associated exploit, while you get on with meeting release deadlines.

Accelerate your CI/CD pipeline, securely.

When you’re working in a CI/CD pipeline, speed and cadence is everything.

While it’s DevSecOps best practice to take a secure software development lifecycle (SDLC) approach, we know it’s not always possible. But with RedShield working silently in the background and shielding vulnerabilities as they are discovered, you can focus on releasing code to production in a timely manner and remediate later.

Coverage and visibility of all threats, with a 24/7 team at your service.

Mitigate the impact of cyber-attacks focusing on OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities, account takeovers, bad bots, denial of service, and advanced application-specific attacks targeting your vulnerabilities.

RedShield’s real-time reporting tracks all attack traffic and mitigations, and a 24/7 expert defense team protects your applications and APIs from attacks. We’ve got your back.

Shield your application vulnerabilities and pen test findings, for as long as you need.

Just point us at the vulnerabilities identified through web application penetration test findings or a vulnerability scanner. Our shields apply fixes specific to your applications and modify application behavior. Shields can be up within hours, and we’ll leave them in place for as long as you need.

The RedShield library has over 14,000 shields to address thousands of common vulnerabilities and exposures (CVEs). New shields are constantly added to our library and deployed to our customers - so everyone is better protected.

Zero code touch.

We know that some things are just hands-off. That’s why we use shields to secure and remediate application and API vulnerabilities.

Shields are code designed to fix an otherwise exploitable vulnerability in an application. We can get shields up and running in hours, with no integration required, no impact on legitimate application functionality, and without touching your code. In fact, access to the code isn't even required, so shields can work for applications written by a third-party, frameworks, and hosting platforms.
