What is the secure software development life cycle

 The software development security domain focuses on the systems development life cycle (SDLC) from system conception through its design, development, deployment, operation, and eventual retirement from service. Information security and privacy professionals must be involved in all phases of SDLC to ensure the overall effectiveness of security controls and that privacy concerns are addressed.

The proliferation of personally-owned mobile devices (e.g, smartphones, tablets, and laptops) as well as the wide variety of vulnerable mobile apps creates a higher risk of exposing confidential and business-related information in the workplace. This can occur when such information is stored on personally-owned devices. Cyber-attacks often exploit the vulnerabilities inherent in applications and operating systems. That is why frequent updates and patches to software are necessary.

Additionally, special care must be taken when developing internal Web applications that are externally accessed through the Internet. The software code should be written following a secure coding guideline such as the Open Web Application Security Project6.
