SDLC Security
SDLC Security, also known as Secure Software Development Lifecycle, is a methodology that integrates security practices and considerations into every phase of the software development process, from planning and design to deployment and maintenance. It aims to build security into applications from the start, rather than treating it as an afterthought, to reduce vulnerabilities, mitigate risks, and ensure compliance with security standards.
Developers should learn and use SDLC Security to proactively address security threats in software, which is critical in industries like finance, healthcare, and e-commerce where data breaches can have severe consequences. It helps in meeting regulatory requirements (e.g., GDPR, HIPAA), reducing costs associated with fixing security issues post-deployment, and building trust with users by delivering more secure and reliable applications.
