Unit4 Enhances DevOps and Reduces False Positives with Contrast Application Security Platform

The deployment of Contrast Assess has significantly streamlined Unit4's application security efforts. The tool's instant notifications and application merging capabilities have reduced administrative effort and improved the handling of different applications under a unique hood. The reduction in false positives compared with penetration testing has also been a significant benefit. The tool's reporting capabilities have been praised for their clarity and ease of use, particularly for communicating with C-level executives and people without deep security knowledge. The just-in-time training provided by Contrast Assess has also been beneficial, helping engineers learn to avoid creating the same vulnerability twice and write more secure code over time. As a result, Unit4 is well-positioned for the future, with the right automation in place for application security.

Between 2 to 3 times faster remediation times.

Estimated a reduction in false positive rate from 57% present in the pen-test reports to 7% in false positive reported by Contrast.

Saved around 72 hours in staff time in investigating false positives and preparing reports, whenever receiving a pen-test report from customers.
