I rate Contrast Security Protect eight out of 10. Overall, it's a solid product, but I deduct a couple of points because of the interface and some shortcomings in the reporting. If you have a large enterprise where you're dealing with a lot of servers, then it makes sense not to use the internal MySQL database. You should use something like Oracle or Microsoft SQL, but if you don't have many transactions, the embedded MySQL database works great.

I'm not sure which version of the solution we're using. We updated the product about a year ago and at that time it was the latest. The product has an agent that's deployed wherever the applications are running, whether that's on-prem or in the cloud. It connects with our service, which is SaaS, which is in the cloud. From there it provides a dashboard, a console of activities, and other integrations. I would recommend the solution. It's a way to provide the protection until a future release or a re-work of that whole application set. Overall, I would rate the solution at a nine out of ten. It's a very strong product overall.
Application security is a significant challenge for software engineers, as well as for security and DevOps professionals. It comprises the measures taken to improve the security of online services and websites against malicious attacks by finding, repairing, and preventing security weaknesses and vulnerabilities.
I rate Contrast Security Protect an eight out of ten.
