SEC Consult, an international leader in application security services and consultancy, and Capgemini, one of the world's foremost providers of consulting, technology and outsourcing services, released the first international study on security of 3rd party Core Banking Packages.
The study summarizes the vendors' promises, commitments and relevant activities relating to the application security of their products. As a 'reality check' three Core Banking products have been tested and severe security vulnerabilities not detected by the vendors have been found in each. The study emphasizes that state-of-the-art application security has to be demanded and consecutively validated by application security tests. Failure to do so can result in the implementation of insecure software products and incur operational risks.
