Cyber threats are increasing day by day. In such a scenario, writing secure code becomes an important requisite part of the secure software development life cycle. Most of the time either the novice or experienced developers tend to write working code due to time constraints or do not have adequate security framework to write secure code.
Additionally, in common situation, most of the part of testing is focused on functional testing.
Such practices can lead to security vulnerabilities/flaws and it could either lead to the crashing of applications or security attacks.
With above in context, making developers aware of secure coding practice, becomes of paramount importance.
Secure coding for Cyber security is a vast topic. This document intends to provide development teams about major points to be taken care of while developing code.
This document is intended for developers.
Scope
The scope of this secure coding guideline applies to all developers and testers which are involved in development/testing, who have or are responsible for the development of any Program/Application/API/Microservices. Anyone involved in development may follow these guidelines for improving application security and thus reducing vulnerabilities.
