Application security can take many different forms. Sometimes, it describes security measures at the application level that aim to prevent data or code within the app from being stolen or hijacked. This encompasses the security considerations that happen during application development and design, but it also involves systems and approaches to protect apps after they get deployed. This is often done by finding, fixing and preventing security vulnerabilities. Many different techniques are used to detect security vulnerabilities at different stages of an applications lifecycle. Some of these techniques include Whitebox and Blackbox security audits, a design review, and tooling.
