Software is an important constituent of any business. It contains all sensitive information related to the functioning and operation of business. Software affects the worldwide economic processes and services. Software assurance can be defined as the strategic and logical set of activities to ensure that software processes and products follow requirements, standards, and procedures and are free from vulnerabilities. Software developed must be robust and free from any vulnerabilities or attacks. Software vulnerabilities serve as the main point of entry for attackers who are trying to gain access to systems or data. These vulnerabilities are needed to be checked in order to ensure secure and threat free software. This is due to the fact that software and IT vulnerabilities endanger business operations, infrastructure operations & services, intellectual property, and consumer trust. Shift in technology from hardware-centric and disconnected devices to software-centric, connected devices has exposed many vulnerabilities in existing systems. Using traditional code-centric software development techniques and relying on source scanners to find vulnerabilities in the code is outdated.
Software assurance solutions address exploitable software problems and ensure that processes and products used to develop and sustain the software are according to the mandated standards and requirements. These standards are specified to govern those processes, procedures, and products. Software assurance tools are required for both newly developed systems and hardening legacy software. SA solutions help business firms in easier budgeting and efficient deployment and administration. SA services aid productivity enhancements as software deployed are quality assured and free from vulnerabilities and weaknesses. Software assurance activities are focused on cyber security and quality assurance.
