Abstract
The chapter focuses on the crucial steps needed for strengthening the software systems against increasing threats. It underlines secure coding practices as the basic pillars in the creation of secure software that can effectively resist acts of cyber terrorism. Thus, in presenting all the cybersecurity frameworks, the chapter offers a detailed guide on how these measures can systematically be incorporated across the SDLC. Some of the areas of concern are threat modeling, risk analysis, and secure coding principles based on Secure Development Life Cycle incorporating OWASP, NIST, and ISO. The chapter also provides descriptions of actual corporate experiences of the practical implementation of these practices that are informative and helpful in terms of the methodologies presented in the book. Besides, it describes the instruments and techniques that are crucial to secure testing and stresses the significance of regulation and legal factors in the enhancement of SSE.Keywords
