ABSTRACT

In Chapter 3 we examined the steps in the software development life cycle (SDLC) that are essential for secure and resilient application software. We saw how new activities must make their way into existing processes to account for deliberate actions that lead to high software quality. In Chapter 4 we’ll overlay basic principles and practices atop the nonfunctional requirements we examined in Chapter 2 to help in designing quality into an application from the start.
