The 2021 Vulnerabilities Benchmark report states that the biggest concern in application security among security leaders is the use of open source or third-party software. “Third party software providers may be slow to release patches, and even when they’re released, they may not get applied right away. In many cases, the patch never gets applied because there’s a fear of breaking dependencies. The root cause of the problem is poor secure coding knowledge, and this can be mitigated with proper training.”
The report also offers a guide for how to use the contents of the report to secure the software development lifecycle.
