Checkmarx,
the Software Exposure Platform for the enterprise, today announced that
it was named a Leader in Gartner’s 2019 analyst report, Magic
Quadrant for Application Security Testing for the second consecutive

According to the report, “DevSecOps, modern web application design and
high-profile breaches are expanding the scope of the AST market.
Security and risk management leaders will need to meet tighter deadlines
and test more complex applications by accelerating efforts to integrate
and automate AST in the software life cycle.”1
