The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recently issued new requirements mandating that medical devices be secured against cyberattacks. This move comes after a long-standing concern about the potential for these devices to be hacked and used to harm patients. This new requirement is a significant step towards securing medical devices, which have been increasingly […]
READ MOREThe source code of Twitter was recently (maybe?) leaked on GitHub, a popular code repository platform. The code repository was quickly taken down, but not before it had been downloaded by hundreds of users. The leak has drawn attention from security experts regarding the implications for the social media platform and raised concerns over the […]
In a recent thread on a discussion forum, a group of developers discussed time lost on bug chasing. One developer lamented that he lost 5 days; another 5 years between the time it was discovered and the time it was finally resolved. Still another developer estimated that in an organization of 400 engineers, […]
On March 21, the Biden administration directed US companies to “harden your cyber defenses immediately.” With these new federal guidelines for application security, the White House urged software developers to deploy “modern tools that can detect known and potential vulnerabilities” in their custom and open-source software (OSS).

How to integrate security into the SDLC successfully The world has an insecure software problem, which is why 84% of cyber attacks focus on the application layer. Two major factors have contributed to the writing of insecure code — cumbersome security analysis tools and a strong drive to reach the market quickly. For things to […]
We review the different compliance standards that apply to the software development life cycle (SDLC) along with best practices for meeting them. It’s no surprise that developers are being asked to become security people. According to the 2021 Verizon Data Breach Investigation Report, basic web application attacks were the second most-used patterns found for breaches […]
