Veracode Certification: What it is, why we use it, and why you need it to stay safe 

WinZip Blog

Veracode is an industry-leading application suite of security tools that enables companies to scan and analyze their applications, helping to validate the security and quality of their software.  

By using Veracode to scan an application or program, companies can detect security vulnerabilities and security breaches before they happen. Using Veracode independently assesses an organization’s software development practices, ensuring they meet rigorous security standards.  

In today’s digital landscape, where cyber threats are rampant and data breaches can have severe consequences, Veracode certification is critical. By obtaining Veracode certification, companies like WinZip® demonstrate their commitment to delivering secure software solutions and instilling confidence in their customers, partners, and stakeholders.  

We are thrilled to announce that we are verified by Veracode, enabling us to deliver best-in-class security technology to WinZip Enterprise customers.  

On Veracode’s website, they explain that when you participate in the Veracode Verified program, “You prove at a glance that you’ve made security a priority, and that your security program is backed by one of the most trusted names in the industry.” 

This certification serves as a valuable differentiator, showcasing our dedication to maintaining robust security standards and reducing risks of software vulnerabilities for our valued clients.

What is Veracode? 

Veracode is a modular, cloud-based application security solution that integrates five essential types of security analysis into one platform. This comprehensive solution provides a powerful approach to identifying and addressing security vulnerabilities in applications.  

With Veracode, organizations can benefit from a holistic and efficient application security solution that covers the entire software development lifecycle. 

Here’s an overview of Veracode’s key contributions to software security: 

  • Static Application Security Testing (SAST). Veracode’s SAST examines an application’s source or binary code to identify security vulnerabilities. Analyzing the codebase can detect issues such as buffer overflows, injection attacks, and insecure coding practices. 
  • Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST). Veracode’s DAST evaluates an application’s running state to identify vulnerabilities from interacting with other components or the environment. It performs security testing by simulating real-world attacks, helping to identify issues like cross-site scripting (XSS) and SQL injection. 
  • Software Composition Analysis (SCA). Veracode’s SCA scans an application’s dependencies and open-source components to identify known vulnerabilities or licensing risks. It helps organizations maintain visibility into the third-party code they rely on and ensures that known vulnerabilities are addressed promptly. 
  • Security program management. Veracode provides tools and resources to manage an organization’s overall application security program. This includes centralized reporting, risk assessment, and policy enforcement capabilities, enabling businesses to establish and maintain strong security practices. 

Whether you need secure software development, application security assessments, or ongoing security monitoring, WinZip Enterprise is equipped to meet your requirements. We understand the criticality of protecting your business and customer data, and our team of experts is ready to collaborate with you to ensure the highest level of security possible.
