LOS ALTOS, Calif., Sept. 23, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Contrast
Security, today announced the release of its PagerDuty
integration with Contrast Protect, and its inclusion in PagerDuty's
Integration Partner Program. Contrast Security, the pioneer in
enabling "self-protecting" software by embedding vulnerability
analysis and exploit prevention directly into modern software, and
the integration with PagerDuty, a global leader in digital
operations management, ensures customers can experience an improved
security posture across their mission critical functions.
Too often security operations centers (SOCs) are consumed
chasing multiple alerts and troubleshooting true positives vs.
false positives, leaving little time or resources to resolve real
threats more effectively. Contrast Security Protect (RASP) solution
is an embedded model that allows security operation teams the
ability to quickly identify real application layer threats and
attacks with zero-day protection. PagerDuty focuses on mean time to
resolution, minimizing the impact of cybersecurity threats and
attacks on the business. When paired together, real-time
application threat intelligence and real-time response management,
can enable security operations and development teams to
intelligently orchestrate effective measures that address the
growing number of attacks and threats with better defense,
code-level visibility and context, and faster times to
resolution.
"We are excited to expand our comprehensive set of security
focused integrations with Contrast Security offered to the 12,000
organizations that trust PagerDuty to manage their digital
operations," said Steve Gross, Sr.
Director of Strategic Ecosystem Development, PagerDuty. "Many
security analysts are still struggling to keep up with the rapid
state of changes due to being flooded with alerts without any
context on the applications themselves. With Contrast Protect, not
only can our users accurately detect active threats and security
vulnerabilities with more application layer context, they can speed
up processes and collaboration between development and operations
engineers to resolve threats faster."
"Security teams require visibility into mission critical
applications at all times, with automation now crucial for
increasing the speed and efficiency of response times," said
Surag Patel, Chief Strategy Officer,
Contrast Security. "Working with PagerDuty closely aligns with our
mission to improve efficiencies by integrating Contrast Protect
(RASP) into security production pipelines. Security tool chaining
between Contrast Security and PagerDuty creates an environment for
shared security accountability with code layer visibility,
protection, and real-time response management."
The Contrast Security platform is an essential foundation
spanning across development and operations. Transparent, accurate,
and continuous application security software coupled with
PagerDuty's real-time response management allows modern DevSecOps
teams to "shift left and extend right" to accelerate time to
value.
This integrated solution is aimed primarily at under resourced
security operation teams resulting in:
- A unified, accurate, and contextual view of vulnerability and
attack streams across the entire lifecycle of the application.
- Automation to enforce policies, prevent exploits, and detect
and defend against attacks from within the application.
- Stronger feedback loops to better manage different levels of
severity threats found in the source code that can be correlated
with other attack telemetry.
- Faster resolution times increasing team productivity, health,
and focus on innovation.
The Contrast Protect Integration for PagerDuty is now generally
available for customers. To learn more about this new solution,

booth at the PagerDuty Summit taking place on September 23-25, 2019 at the Westin St. Francis
in San Francisco.
