Secure software

Security in software systems is very important more so in this connected world. We have a lot of software that predates connected world. Naturally it might have made design choices with the requirements of the time. Modern times demands on system security are very different. We see that there are two approaches seen for security, first approach is to layer security on top as separate layer which can provide a layer on top of legacy software however this may not be the right approach for new software.

Secure is in the design, making choices at every step of process, tools, infrastructure, programming paradigms etc. all that paves way towards secure systems is scalable approach. It should not be an after -thought.
