Application security focuses on identifying and fixing vulnerabilities throughout the software development lifecycle.

From design to deployment, secure coding practices and security testing help protect applications from threats such as SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), and authentication bypass attacks.

Important Application Security Practices:

• Secure code reviews
• Vulnerability scanning
• Penetration testing
• Web application firewalls (WAF)
• DevSecOps integration

Strong application security reduces risks and ensures safer user experiences.
