Insights from experts shaping secure development

En este momento, solo el 15% de los desarrolladores está de acuerdo en que las prácticas de código seguro deben ser responsabilidad de todos. En un mundo en el que aumentan las amenazas a la seguridad, eso simplemente no es suficiente. Hay que hacer algo. Una clave para crear una cultura de AppSec saludable es comprender las principales influencias (¡y a las personas influyentes!) en juego.

Necesitamos reforzar un enfoque humano de las mejores prácticas de ciberseguridad, y obtendremos mejores resultados que si dependemos en gran medida de la automatización, las herramientas y la reacción a los problemas que ya se han incorporado y descubierto.

El código inseguro cuesta millones a las empresas, entonces, ¿qué es lo que impide la adopción de prácticas de codificación seguras? En un mundo en el que prácticamente todo depende del software, es fundamental garantizar la seguridad del código. La reputación de la marca y la viabilidad financiera dependen de ello. Dicho esto, existen muchas preocupaciones en torno a la codificación segura y muchos obstáculos para su adopción plena y efectiva. Ahora más que nunca, se requiere una nueva forma de trabajar.

Kamer van Koophandel shares how it embedded secure coding into everyday development through role-based certifications, Trust Score benchmarking, and a culture of shared security ownership.

January 28 is International Data Privacy Day, and this year’s theme is ‘Taking Control of Your Data’ – here’s some expert advice and perspectives on how to do just that.

Companies that need to respond by upskilling their developers should take a three-tiered approach that includes implementing a measured program to deliver education and competency, providing right-fit tools that suit the organization’s tech stack, and overhauling the processes that have led to cut corners and insecure coding patterns running rampant.

CISA’s Secure-by-Design guidelines are gaining traction as a higher standard for software vendors to achieve, while updates from NIST, PCI and the EU-wide NIS2 Directive are having a global impact on many enterprise companies. Smart CISOs are utilizing their full team potential through role-based upskilling and especially enabling the development cohort to take pressure off the AppSec team by honing their security prowess on an ongoing basis.
