Governments around the world are making secure software development a CEO’s problem. Proposed regulations like the EU Cyber Resilience Act and the just released National Cybersecurity Strategy in the United States, are calling for landmark actions to be taken by organizations.
The White House, specifically, calls for cybersecurity liability and holding software providers responsible for insecure products released to consumers. Meaning, it’s now an organizational imperative at the highest level to get serious about securing your software supply chain from the very beginning. The United States is the first to call for liability, but other countries are not far behind.
If government oversight isn’t enough, consider the average cost of a data breach is an astounding $4.35 million. With today’s economic uncertainties, you simply can’t afford not to acknowledge there is an organizational responsibility to secure your software from phase 0.
