System Development or Application Assurance
Your vulnerability assessment has been completed, and it’s a good thing, because you found several system weaknesses in the area of application software security.
If these weaknesses were exploited, it could ruin your company’s reputation. Not to mention causing major disruptions to operations and unexpected costs.
You plan on following up on these issues this afternoon, but it’s about lunchtime, so you head out for a quick bite to eat.
You pass by Maria Sosa’s office and see her at her desk. You knock on her door frame, peek inside, and ask if she has a minute. Maria motions to you. “Come on in.”
“What brings you to my office?”
You give her a high-level overview of your findings, and tell her that after lunch, you plan to start taking an even closer look.
Maria says: “That sounds great. Can you write up your analysis and recommendations for solutions? I’d like to share this with important stakeholders at the executive meeting next week. How does that sound?”
You nod in agreement. Then you make a beeline back to your office and grab an energy bar from your desk. You need to prepare for your presentation for the meeting next week.
Step 1: Assess Software Vulnerabilities
Project 2 outlined the steps involved to produce a final vulnerability and threat assessment, and Project 3 covered risk analysis and mitigation. Those assessments were across the entire enterprise and included numerous elements outside the realm of systems and technology. However, they did uncover opportunities for improvement in the application software processes.
For this step, return to the vulnerability and threat assessment from Project 2 and focus on all areas of application software that were itemized. Give additional thought to uncover software that perhaps did not make the list or were assumed to be secure and simply overlooked.
The assignment is to create a more comprehensive list of application software that could place the enterprise at risk of a breach, loss of data, loss of production, and/or loss of brand confidence.
The assessment should include the application of secure principles, development models such as the maturity model or integrated product and process development (IPPD), software development methods, libraries and toolsets used in the software development life cycle or systems development life cycle.
