Software Security Insights

What is Software Security?

Software security encompasses the principles and practices used to design, develop, and maintain software systems in a way that minimizes vulnerabilities and protects against unauthorized access, use, disclosure, disruption, modification, or destruction. It involves identifying potential threats, implementing security controls, and continuously monitoring and testing software to ensure its integrity and confidentiality. Common practices include secure coding, vulnerability assessments, penetration testing, and security audits.
