Barclays Application Security Assurance Project

As one of the leading global financial services institutions, Barclays, like many of its peers, relies heavily on a number of third-party commercial software and outsourcing providers to help drive its core banking systems. They wanted to build a joint business case that would demonstrate a win-win for all parties involved. Barclays chose Veracode SecurityReview to overcome this challenge. The Barclays implemented by Veracode SecurityReview, an on-demand application security service that helps test internally developed applications, commercial-off-the-shelf software, offshore code and open source applications for potential software vulnerabilities. Because of this, Barclays is now rolling out the program to dozens of third-party vendors and outsourcing providers with plans to expand further.
