Client/Server

Fix Your Old Stuff and Build Security Into the New

While the death of traditional client/server applications continues to be predicted, it seems that old code never really dies. It gets re-skinned with new front ends and redeployed in new infrastructure -  adding layers of complexity while retaining many of the old problems, not the least of which are security related.

Attackers are skilled at getting below, above and around these new layers; therefore, legacy code often has to be hardened. In addition, the new layers and the interfaces between them add new attack surfaces that need to be addressed.

Solutions

Security Innovation is particularly skilled in client/server applications, with years of experience assessing and coding server and database-based applications.  We also have a deep understanding of Windows clients and other client application environments.  Key solutions include:

• Software assessment

  Understand where your vulnerabiltiies are and get remediation advice

• eLearning 

  Build the skills needed to code security, repent attacks, and connect legacy interfaces securely

• Secure Development eGuidance 

  Ensure that key security activities are integrated and conducted properly
