DefectDojo announced the launch of its universal
parser for security data ingestion on the Dojo Pro platform. With the universal
parser, DefectDojo can support all security tools producing JSON or XML data,
the two most common data types in ASPM, streamlining data ingestion for more
efficient vulnerability response. The universal parser also helps security
teams future-proof their operations against formatting changes or the launch of
new tools, solving security data ingestion once and for all.
According
to IDC, 73% of IT teams use between 21-80 tools to thoroughly test and evaluate enterprise software for
security. However, tool vendors frequently change the formats of these tools,
breaking integrations and significantly slowing operations. Without the
findings from these tools, teams could potentially miss major vulnerabilities
and leave avenues of attack open for bad actors to exploit. DefectDojo's
universal parser removes this pain point by adapting to tool changes automatically,
preventing integrations from breaking and helping security teams maintain a
holistic view of all software and applications.
"Security
professionals inevitably have to add tools to adequately protect an enterprise
as time goes on. The more tools they use, the more likely it is that something
will break and put the business at risk. DefectDojo has always strived to
integrate with as many tools as possible, and the universal parser is the next
step in that evolution," said Greg Anderson, CEO of DefectDojo. "With this
development, Dojo Pro users will no longer have to worry about data importation
and can focus on higher-level issues rather than constantly trying to fix the
latest broken integration."
With
over 38 million downloads, DefectDojo's community of clients and users
encompasses everything from Fortune 10 companies to solo consultants. The only
open-source solution in the unified vulnerability management space, the
platform offers a comprehensive approach to both managing and improving
security postures by aggregating data from various security tools, automating
workflows, and delivering actionable insights to ensure vulnerabilities are
effectively identified, tracked, and mitigated across the entire
organization.
DefectDojo
provides security and DevSecOps teams with a unified command center capable of
automating critical tasks and maximizing the value of security data. The
platform leverages advanced machine learning algorithms that automatically
consolidate duplicates, eliminate false positives, triage vulnerabilities,
enrich data, identify larger trends and other tasks, all with the highest
precision. These same algorithms evolve over time based on human input to
better fit a specific team's needs. This commitment to customization continues
with the universal parser. Users can tailor the parser to integrate data using
the exact methods they prefer, further smoothing workflows.
The universal parser is
now available in the Dojo Pro Platform.
