To understand the evaluation process described in this blog post, we need to take a step back and understand what a hyperparameter in machine learning is. A hyperparameter is a parameter of the model whose value is set before the learning process begins. Finding the optimal values for the hyperparameters of deep models has been long considered “more an art than a science” and relied mainly on trial and error.

Application Security is every action you take towards ensuring the software that you (or someone else) create is secure. This can mean a formal secure code review, hiring someone to come in and perform a penetration test, or updating your framework because you heard it has a serious security flaw. It doesn't need to be extremely formal, it just needs to have the goal of ensuring your systems are more secure.
