There is much publicity regarding network security, but the real cyber Achilles’ heel is insecure software. Millions of software vulnerabilities create a cyber house of cards, in which we conduct our digital lives. In response, security people build ever more elaborate cyber fortresses to protect this vulnerable software. Despite their efforts, cyber fortifications consistently fail to protect our digital treasures. Why? The security industry has failed to engage fully with the creative, innovative people who write software.
Core Software Security expounds developer-centric software security, a holistic process to engage creativity for security. As long as software is developed by humans, it requires the human element to fix it. Developer-centric security is not only feasible but also cost effective and operationally relevant. The methodology builds security into software development, which lies at the heart of our cyber infrastructure. Whatever development method is employed, software must be secured at the source.

Descriere
Introducing users to existing software development life cycle (SDLC) models, this book explains their weakness and shows how to build security practices into these models. After working with Fortune 500 companies, the authors have often seen examples of a breakdown in SDLC practices. They supply a realistic look at how to best apply available Secure Software Development Lifecycle (SSDLC) models. e. The text proposes improvements in applying these models to the software code. Case studies from Linux, Apache, and web applications walk readers through examples of how to implement improved practices.
