IT Security is a field of computer science concerned with the control of risks related to computer use. The means traditionally taken to realize this objective is to attempt to create a secure computing platform, designed so that agents (users or programs) can only perform actions that have been allowed. This involves specifying and implementing a security policy. The actions in question can be reduced to operations of access, modification and deletion. |

Secure at the Source: Implementing Source Code Vulnerability Testing in the Development Life Cycle |
|
|
Organizations should implement source code analysis tools as part of the software development life cycle to find and fix the highest number of security issues early in the project. This will result in a higher-quality product and lower overall application life cycle costs. Countless studies and analyst recommendations suggest the value of improving software security during the development life cycle (SDLC) rather than trying to address security vulnerabilities in software discovered after widespread adoption and deployment.
