This policy reinforces what software companies should have been doing all along — investing and executing on secure development practices. As the creators of their offerings, they are responsible for the repercussions that can place the government, businesses, consumers and more at risk to adversary actions. While it’s frustrating that we need to rely on the government to validate this effort, it’s clearly needed and now outlined as a basic (and expected!) standard. While all will benefit from this new strategy, it will require software companies to reprioritize and strategize in order to implement the contents of this policy. Secure development practices start at the code level and require implementing Infrastructure as Security (IaC) and scanning applications source code. Both are paramount to reduce risk of security incidents in production and decrease time and effort of security remediation. We no longer need to wait for a product to reach the market before learning of a vulnerability or explicit security threat. Today, we can address in real time, at the source, saving businesses money and end-users from unnecessary repercussions.
