PreEmptive

Nearly 4,000 voices from across QA, testing, and application security came together to shape something new. The first edition of the Sembi Software Quality Pulse Report is on its way, offering a data-backed look at how teams are approaching quality today and their expectations for the future. We'll be sharing a first look at the questions and insights behind the report soon!

Once your application ships, it runs in environments you don't control. That's where attackers operate. They can decompile code, bypass licensing, or manipulate runtime behavior. Often without triggering traditional security controls. PreEmptive helps you stay ahead with layered protection built into your application before release, including: • Obfuscation to protect code and IP • Runtime integrity checks to detect tampering • Configurable responses to stop attacks in real time From .NET to Java to JavaScript, protection travels with your application.

The AOT trade-off is over! Dotfuscator 7.6.0 is here, changing how .NET developers think about securing high-performance applications. This means developers can take advantage of Microsoft's AOT capabilities—enjoying speed, efficiency, predictability—all while remaining fully protected.

What we see in practice is that even as visibility improves across cloud environments, risk becomes harder to interpret because it’s spread across code, infrastructure, and runtime. That’s where many gaps emerge: from lack of connection between signals. As cloud architectures evolve, securing them increasingly means treating these layers as one continuous system, not separate checkpoints.

How easy is it to reverse engineer a .NET application? In many cases it only takes minutes. Decompilation tools can reconstruct readable C# from compiled assemblies, exposing sensitive logic and IP. Here's how obfuscation helps protect your code: https://lnkd.in/ef4H-pRW

Backups are essential, but in modern application security they’re only part of the resilience equation. On World Backup Day, we’re sharing key considerations for development and security teams—from pipeline protection to restoration testing. Swipe to learn more.

Many breaches originate within the application layer. Addressing vulnerabilities in production carries real cost: downtime, emergency fixes, incident response, and loss of trust. That's why prevention matters. This guide explains how to reduce application security risk earlier in the lifecycle and build protection that scales with modern development. https://lnkd.in/ejvxkDy4

AI changed a lot, but not attacker behavior; if anything, it's amplified it. That's why the focus in 2026 should be to protect everywhere. Static code analysis identifies vulnerabilities early and runtime protection defends what reaches production. Integrated quality operations require both: ✔ Code-level security testing ✔ Runtime application self-protection Relying on PreEmptive and Kiuwan helps you close the lifecycle gap. Secure code that isn't protected at runtime is still exposed, so let's talk about protecting the full spectrum. Learn more: https://lnkd.in/e5HgtJQX

Faster pipelines don't mean secure pipelines. CI/CD is now one of the most important control layers in DevSecOps, enforcing security across the SDLC as code moves from commit to production. Here's how to use it effectively: https://lnkd.in/e_gGTJbh

Your code doesn't stop being vulnerable after deployment. Attackers reverse engineer, tamper, and exploit exposed logic. That's where runtime protection matters. See how Dotfuscator helps obfuscate sensitive code, prevent reverse engineering, detect tampering, and strengthen application resilience. If you're serious about protecting your IP and your users, this is your next step. Start your free trial today: https://lnkd.in/e9tgwGJB
