Secure and Safe Software
Security and safety mean protecting against attacks from malicious actors who seek to steal sensitive information or disrupt operations via cyberattacks, and also protecting information or solutions from accidental loss or improper handling. This includes physical security protocols, such as strong passwords, multifactor authentication and encryption.
The design phase is crucial to making a secure and safe product. Ideally, a business will integrate security into the software development life cycle (SDLC) rather than treat it as an afterthought. This means that it should be a part of the planning process and incorporated long before the first line of code is written.
It is important to be able to clearly define and define security requirements. Developers should be taught to develop according to these standards. They should also use the most efficient tools to detect weaknesses during testing. They should also use secure programming techniques, and communicate standards to third parties and then verify the compliance. It’s also important to make sure that the product is secure in the event of a release, using transparent vulnerability reporting and phishing-resistant forms of authentication.
Lastly, companies should use automated SAST to check their code for MISRA violations, rather than doing the checks manually, line-by -line. Klocwork is a tool that will reduce time and give you a consistent and efficient approach to reviewing MISRA compliance.
