Mobile App Security – Application Security’s “Where’s Waldo”

Mobile App Security – Application Security’s “Where’s Waldo”:

Over the last several years, there has been a major evolution in how applications are being built with new underlying technologies, application architectures and data formats, but have application scanners evolved with them? These new technologies have grown at such a fast rate, we haven’t been able to keep up at either end. On one end, developers aren’t able to build these new applications securely because they are up against deadlines from the business and delivering on new technologies. And on the other end, web application scanners  were architected in the golden days of web application security when almost all web applications were static and relatively simple HTML pages.

The widening coverage gap of application security scanners.
