IBM’s cognitive application security testing can greatly reduce false positives and noise in application security tests. IBM’s intelligent code analytics (ICA) takes IFA a major step forward by using cognitive computing to extend the coverage of a language. This is extremely important because coding languages are rapidly evolving, with new frameworks appearing seemingly every day. Identifying unknown APIs and creating rules around them can take weeks or more, leaving gaps in the testing systems coverage. With IFA and ICA, ICA addresses this issue by applying machine learning to the identification and markup of APIs.”]
