Cybersecurity Mandates & the Future of Software Security
Cybersecurity is no longer an afterthought—it’s becoming a mandated priority for software teams across industries. A new executive order is setting the stage for stricter security regulations, pushing companies to adopt more robust security measures, comply with unified standards, and provide concrete proof of software integrity. But what does this mean for developers, testers, and organizations that build and deploy critical applications?
In this episode, Arthur Hicken (the Code Curmudgeon) and Joanna Schloss (CMO at Parasoft) break down the most impactful aspects of this executive order, explaining how it will reshape the way software security is approached. They discuss the evolving role of penetration testing, the push for software security attestations, and how organizations can prepare for future compliance requirements.
Key Takeaways:
- Mandatory Cybersecurity Standards: How the government is moving toward consolidated, enforceable security benchmarks for software development.
- The Role of Penetration Testing: Why companies will need to provide proof of security measures rather than just claim compliance.
- Software Security Attestations: The shift from informal security commitments to structured, auditable security validations.
- The Future of Compliance: What developers, testers, and security professionals need to do now to align with emerging regulations.
Don’t get caught off guard—tune in to learn how you can stay ahead of these critical changes and strengthen your software security strategy.
