Unlocking the Future of Application Security: Evolution from ASOC to ASPM

Application Security Orchestration and Correlation (ASOC) used to be positioned as a leading edge solution to safeguard an organization's applications, providing a strategic framework that integrates various AppSec tools and processes to more comprehensively mitigate vulnerabilities and protect against evolving threats. 

However, new challenges in application security, particularly with software supply chain vulnerabilities, DevOps, and cloud-based apps have revealed the limitations of ASOC in today's threat landscape. As a result, a more adaptive and comprehensive solution — Application Security Posture Management (ASPM) has emerged to address the limitations found within ASOC frameworks and replace them. 

In this article, we’ll explore ASOC, its benefits, shortcomings, gaps, and why organizations should transition to ASPM to better secure their software supply chains and software delivery.
