As organizations modernize their operations, it’s essential to start thinking about security right at the beginning of the transformation process. Consider a bank that aims to enhance customer experience with a new app. If functional requirements and coding don’t progress alongside security, potential vulnerabilities may only be identified at the eleventh hour. In contrast to this reactive process, a secure-by-design approach would weave security into the project’s fabric from the very beginning, even as early as the ideation and business requirement phases. “Secure by design” is not a service or technology; it’s a holistic approach to security, like that of zero trust. This approach involves asking critical questions about data assets and their sensitivity and implementing concepts like role-based access control. It’s a guiding philosophy we apply not only in software development but also when designing network, data center and cloud infrastructure. Within this secure-by-design framework, I use the six Cs of cybersecurity to decide where and how to plan […]
