VeraTalks: What Holds Developers Back From Addressing Security Vulnerabilities? - ERP Spain.com - España y América Latina

Our recent State of Software Security report found that 97 percent of typical Java applications are made up of open source libraries. Unfortunately, 79 percent of developers never update third-party libraries after including them in a codebase … resulting in an unnecessary amount of vulnerabilities and technical debt.

Join us as we discuss the common misconceptions around open source flaws and show you just how easy it is to find and fix library flaws.
