Eliminating software vulnerabilities at the source
Tight development schedules often create serious software vulnerabilities.
The CEO committed to shipping June 1, the VP engineering is under the gun, the programmers know they are cutting corners, your resellers are getting ready to jump ship to your latest competitor. Is it worth it, knowing that the cost of fixing a bug in production software is 100X the cost of fixing it during the implementation process?
How can you eliminate vulnerabilities in your software at the source?
We can help you:
* Eliminate those minor security releases that put a huge dent in your ship schedule and damage hard-earned customer equity.
* Proactively control vulnerabilities and create a disclosure process with your customers that makes security an asset not a liability.
* We can help you to improve your work practices in the software development life cycle by training and helping you build a team that can sustain quality.
o Learn how to reduce avoidable rework
o Learn how to reliably identify fault-prone modules in a company’s particular operation
o Learn how to identify modules with the most impact on system reliability and downtime
o Learn how to develop sustaining metrics for defect reduction
o Train your application programmers in best security practices and help them see themselves as part of an integrated company-wide commitment to quality software.
o Help your organization choose and implement disciplined practices such as Watts Humphrey’s PSP (Personal Software Process) and TSP (Team Software Process) that can have high ROI in defect reduction in new software development.
