Dealing with malicious threats, endlessly rectifying misconfigurations, keeping up with the exponentially increasing techniques that threat actors come up with, security operatives have always had a lot to do. Personnel or not, they are undoubtedly stretched thin. Bittersweet as it may be, the coronavirus pandemic has intensified the case. With most of the world tracking the cyber lane, the SecOps field is now booming farmland, with opportunities for many. On the other hand, this would mean heightened activity for its villainous counterparts. Airtight code security is the undisputed priority nowadays.

DevOps is well invested in automated code development, giving way for a faster supply chain. Still, it has also meant that code delivery must be verified, secured, and patched more frequently to maintain airtight security. Risk management has also grown more complicated. As a result, many businesses must weigh the benefits of releasing improvements faster against putting apps at risk.

Due to the increasing DevOps activity, security inspection cannot keep up with code production, leaving a little space in the market for someone to intervene, and that’s where the Israeli startup, Rezilion comes in. Using machine learning rudiments, Rezilion can automate the vulnerability validation and patching process, eliminating the existence of manual security bottlenecks, reducing the amount of work DevOps security operators have to do for each code.

At Rezilion, we are deeply committed to helping organizations drive their innovation by reducing the resource drain, inaccuracies, and operational friction created by manual security work; we know there’s never been a better time for organizations to experience what we call ‘trust in motion,’ or the peace of mind that comes from moving fast while staying safe and, secure.
