The likelihood of finding a vulnerability in an application is quite high. Most applications are not very highly tested for security during the development and quality assurance stages, and go unprotected even during their production.<\/p>\n

What is RASP?<\/h1>\n

RASP is a technology that runs on a server and comes into action when an application starts running. It is specifically designed to detect attacks on an application in real-time. It incorporates security into a running application wherever it resides on a server. It also intercepts calls from the application to the system and validates data requests directly inside the application.<\/p>\n

RASP in DevOps<\/h1>\n

RASP technology is emerging to offer enterprises the necessary capabilities for DevOps security. As per the present scenario, most of the attempts made to ensure the security of DevOps processes have not have had too much success. The reason for this failure was mostly due to the fact that modern application security detection and protection technologies operate slowly and cannot keep up with the agility requirements of DevOps. Some of the important criteria points for a DevOps security technology have been described below.

RASP technology is able to fulfill all of these criteria and is expected to become a major enabler of DevOps security. It always resides in the server, eliminating the need for separate installation of testing and protection tools. It performs in several contexts, some of them are given below.<\/p>\n
