The Future of Cyber: Secure Coding

Abstract

SAFECode has been around since about 2005 or 2006, and it is a nonprofit, it is an industry nonprofit. The members are companies that have to deliver secure software: big ones, small ones, online-service companies, packaged-software companies, and some that are manufacturers that include software in the devices or products that they build. So quite a wide range, but everybody bound together by this challenge: How do we deliver secure software? How do we deliver secure software better? How do we get the software we depend on to be secure, so that we are not challenged by supplier problems? And How do we enable the rest of the ecosystem in the industry to understand what effective and less effective approaches are?
