Fixing a software defect after deployment can cost an organization more than 100 times what it would have cost to fix it at the first stages of the software development life-cycle (SDLC). Many organizations are moving the responsibility and skills for testing security into the SDLC. This white paper illustrates the best models for integrating source code vulnerability testing into the SDLC and how to efficiently merge security expertise with development resources.
Written by one of the industry's leading experts in application security, this white paper describes three models for source code security testing in the SDLC, including pros, cons, and best practices. Read this white paper to learn about:
- Delegating software security testing within an organization
- Implementing code vulnerability testing within existing development model
- Effectively merging security and development resources together
