According to a report by Gartner, “by 2022, 60% of enterprise application security budgets will be allocated to application security posture management (ASPM), up from less than 10% in 2020.”
TLDR
- Application Security Posture Management (ASPM) is an approach to managing the security of applications throughout their lifecycle, from development to production. It helps organizations identify, prioritize, and remediate vulnerabilities, comply with regulations and reduce the risk of data breaches.
- Implementing ASPM can be challenging, but it offers many benefits, including improved security posture, reduced risk of data breaches, and regulatory compliance.
- Organizations can start with ASPM by understanding the ASPM framework, conducting a risk assessment, developing a security plan, and implementing security controls. By adopting a comprehensive approach to security management, organizations can protect their valuable data and reduce the risk of cyber-attacks.
