In order to provide the award-winning portfolio of application security testing solutions from the Synopsys Software Integrity Group throughout ASEAN, specifically the Singaporean, Malaysian, and Philippines markets, Singapore-based AZ Asia-Pacific and Synopsys, Inc. have entered into a distribution agreement.
Synopsys assists software development teams in producing risk-reduced, high-quality software as quickly and efficiently as possible. Synopsys, a well-known innovator in silicon chip design technology and application security, offers static analysis, software composition analysis, and dynamic analysis solutions that help businesses quickly identify and correct flaws and vulnerabilities in custom code, open-source components, and application behaviour.
Synopsys has placed first in the Forrester WaveTM for Software Composition Analysis three times, first in the Forrester WaveTM for Static Application Security Testing twice, and first in the Gartner® Magic QuadrantTM for Application Security Testing six times.
According to IDC findings, "Adoption of digital tools and modernization of business applications and distributed infrastructure have been the hallmarks of the digital-first era, which also significantly increases the attack surfaces for cyber threats. Thus, Southeast Asian businesses will be turning to trusted security partners for advice, implementation and management of security operations to improve their security postures."
"As a Distribution Services Hub, we strongly believe in the expedition of software development and adoption of a DevOps model which improves organizations' ability to deliver applications and services more efficiently," said Seth Ho, Chief Revenue Officer of AZ Asia-Pacific. "Application security should shift further left in the process and be incorporated in every step for organizations to build trust in their software. The agreement with Synopsys allows better positioning to support businesses' efforts in adjusting to their ever-changing environments and the growing application threat landscape."
"Our agreement with AZ Asia-Pacific is a significant milestone that will help expand the Synopsys portfolio's value in the market," said Tom Herrmann, vice president of Global Channels and Alliances within the Synopsys Software Integrity Group. "Broadening our business through the channel is one of our top strategic priorities. This agreement signals the continued momentum and growth we expect by further extending our world-class application security solutions through the channels moving forward."
