ID.RA-01.149

Does your organization conduct security reviews, analysis, or testing of internally developed software to identify vulnerabilities in design, code, and default configurations?

Explanation

This question assesses whether your organization has established processes to identify security weaknesses in software you develop before it reaches production. These processes might include code reviews, static/dynamic application security testing (SAST/DAST), threat modeling, or security-focused quality assurance testing. Evidence could include documentation of your secure software development lifecycle (SDLC), sample vulnerability assessment reports, screenshots of security testing tools in use, remediation tracking documentation, or a written policy describing your code review and security testing requirements.

Implementation Example

ResponseHub is the product I wish I had when I was a CTO

Previously I was co-founder and CTO of Progression, a VC backed HR-tech startup used by some of the biggest names in tech.

As our sales grew, security questionnaires quickly became one of my biggest pain-points. They were confusing, hard to delegate and arrived like London busses - 3 at a time!

I'm building ResponseHub so that other teams don't have to go through this. Leave the security questionnaires to us so you can get back to closing deals, shipping product and building your team.
