The Role of SLDC Gap Analysis in Reducing Development Risks
In the race to build and release software faster, many organizations unintentionally overlook one critical aspect: security and process integrity within the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). Every missed control or overlooked best practice in the SDLC can lead to significant risks from vulnerabilities and compliance failures to project delays and increased costs. To mitigate……
