What’s your tensile strength?










A good programmer is someone who always looks both ways before crossing a one-way street. — Doug Linder


In a time when every product is developed with an unimaginable rush to deliver and market, how much time is really spent on security aspect of your product? Is security a thought thru and well integrated aspect in your application or is it really an after thought? Most of us know what the reality is! How many of you are still following traditional SDLC for project life cycles? Given the demand to deliver products with no time for proper planning or testing, unless otherwise security becomes a second nature to everyone in an organization, it is an impossible goal to achieve decent security across all your products.

You may have separate Information Security team, specialized in all security threats and tools to prevent them, you may have trained your architects and team leads in security matters once in few years, but the chain is only as strong as it’s weakest link! It only takes one flaw to give your entire infrastructure on a platter to be owned.
