Securing Custom-built Applications with Secfense

Custom-built Applications

Custom-built applications, designed specifically for an organization, encounter distinctive security challenges.

The first challenge lies in the complex nature of internal systems, which often require tailored security measures. Additionally, the absence of publicly available updates and patches means that every vulnerability must be identified and resolved by the internal development team, significantly extending response times to newly discovered threats.

Another issue is adapting authentication and access management processes to the unique characteristics of these applications, which may not always be compatible with standard IAM solutions. Furthermore, such applications are more vulnerable to targeted attacks because they contain unique data and functionalities that are valuable to attackers.

Securing these applications requires a solution that offers flexibility and the ability to integrate with diverse environments, while providing strong protection against a broad range of threats.

Secfense Suite

The Secfense Suite helps secure custom-built applications (or proprietary applications), i.e., software owned by a company or individual that is not freely available for public use.

Below is a selected list of benefits organizations can achieve by using the Secfense Suite to secure their proprietary and closed-source software:

Flexibility and control

Secfense Suite integrates seamlessly with various proprietary application environments, giving organizations complete control over identity and access management without requiring changes to existing systems.

Integration with existing IAM systems

Secfense Suite easily integrates with identity and access management (IAM) solutions like Active Directory, simplifying access management within proprietary applications.

Enhanced user convenience

Implementing passkeys and other passwordless authentication methods not only boosts security but also improves the user experience with simplicity and convenience.

Protection against zero-day vulnerabilities

The Suite enables rapid response to newly discovered vulnerabilities, shielding applications from unknown threats through features like full-site protection.

Phishing-resistant authentication

By enabling multi-factor authentication (MFA) and passwordless options based on FIDO standards, proprietary applications can significantly strengthen their defenses against phishing and other data exploitation methods.

Multi-layered security

Features such as microauthorizations and full-site protection add extra layers of security, safeguarding applications from unauthorized access and enhancing overall system protection.

Regulatory compliance

Secfense Suite supports organizations in meeting legal and regulatory requirements for data security and privacy, facilitating compliance with frameworks like DORA, NIS2, or GDPR.

Secure remote access

Secfense Suite simplifies the management of secure remote access to proprietary applications, addressing the growing demand for remote work and workforce mobility.

Protect your company with Secfense

We are faced with new challenges every day. We must always be one step ahead of the attackers and know what they are going to do before they do it. We are convinced that the User Access Security Broker will bring security to a new level, both for those working at the office and from home. For us, working with Secfense is an opportunity to exchange experience with developers who put great value on out-of-the-box thinking.

As part of the pre-implementation analysis, we verified that users utilize a wide range of client platforms: desktop computers, laptops, tablets, smartphones, and traditional mobile phones. Each of these devices differs in technological advancement, features, and level of security. Because of this, and also due to the recommendation of the Polish Financial Supervision Authority (UKNF), we decided to introduce additional protection in the form of multi-factor authentication mechanisms based on FIDO. As a result, users of our applications can log in safely, avoiding common cyber threats such as phishing, account takeover, and theft of their own and their clients’ data.

Before investing in Secfense, we had the opportunity to talk to its existing clients. Their reactions were unanimous: wow, it’s so easy to use. We were particularly impressed by the fact that implementing their solution does not require the involvement of IT developers. It gives Secfense a huge advantage over the competition, and at the same time opens the door to potential customers who so far were afraid of changes related to the implementation of multi-factor authentication solutions.

Even when the network and infrastructure are secured enough, social engineering and passwords can be used to gain control of the system by attackers. Multifactor authentication is the current trend. Secfense addresses this and allows you to build zero trust security and upgrade your current systems to passwordless applications within minutes, solving this problem right away,” said Eduard Kučera, Partner at Presto Ventures and cybersecurity expert – former Director in hugely successful Czech multinational cyber security firm Avast.

One of the biggest challenges the world is facing today is securing our identity online. That’s why we were so keen to have Secfense in our portfolio. They make it possible to introduce strong authentication in an automated way. Until now, organizations had to selectively protect applications because the deployment of new technology was very hard, or even impossible. With Secfense, the implementation of multi-factor authentication is no longer a problem, and all organizations can use the highest standards of authentication security.

Two-factor authentication is known to be one of the best ways to protect against phishing; however, its implementation has always been difficult. Secfense helped us solve that problem. With their security broker, we were able to introduce various 2FA methods on our web applications at once.
