Top 5 Need to Know Coding Defects for DevSecOps
Integrating static analysis into the development cycle can prevent coding defects and deliver secure software faster.
Security practitioners are accustomed to intervening at the end of the software development process to identify security vulnerabilities, many of which could have been prevented with earlier intervention. To address this problem, developers who are already under pressure to deliver increasingly complex software faster and less expensively are being recruited to implement security earlier in the development cycle under the shift-left movement.
To understand the obstacles facing developers in meeting new security requirements, consider the five most common coding defects and how to address them.
