CIS Control 16 - Application Software Security
The way in which we interact with applications has changed dramatically over years. Organizations use applications in day-to-day operations to manage their most sensitive data and control access to system resources. Instead of traversing a labyrinth of networks and systems, attackers today see an opening to turn an organizations applications against it to bypass network security controls and compromise sensitive data.  NOTE: Crowdstrike notes that Cloud based attacks and initial access via these systems has increased 112%, therefore SaaS applications, their potential vulnerabilities and misconfigurations along with initial access are all being focused on by threat actors.
