According to Veracode, 42 percent of applications and 71 percent of organizations have security debt, which is defined as flaws that have gone unfixed for more than a year. Forty-six percent of organizations have critical security flaws that risk confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Veracode found that 63 percent of applications have flaws in first-party code, and 70 percent have flaws in third-party code imported through third-party libraries. These findings emphasize the importance of testing both types throughout the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC).
