Grounding AI with Software Intelligence
When it comes to generating new software code, AI can be extremely useful. But typically over 75% of large organizations’ software engineering resources focus on maintaining, enhancing and modernizing existing applications.
Secure Software Design: The Next Frontier In Cybersecurity
If you add up the biggest data breaches from 2018, they affected about a third of the world’s population. One can easily become cynical about the idea that data security no longer matters -- all our information is already on the dark web. Just deal with it. And that’s with us spending over $100 billion per year on information security. Gartner estimates it will reach $124 billion in 2019, to be precise, yet we are not winning this battle.
Defining Software Quality and Economic Value
This introduction to The Economics of Software Quality covers how to define software quality and economic value. This chapter is from the book Introduction This book deals with two topics that have been ambiguous and difficult to pin down for many years: software quality and economic value. The reason for the ambiguity, as noted in the Preface, is that there are many different points of view, and each point of view has a different interpretation of the terms.

Adopt A New Mindset To Tame The Enterprise Software Monster
We’ve come to fear that the software that drives our cars will be hacked or that the medical devices we implant in our bodies will be taken over by some evildoer who wants to inject a deadly amount of insulin just for the thrill. It doesn’t have to be that way -- and those instances are the rarity, not the norm. Yes, we are becoming a digital-first society. In fact, 42% of CEOs say they are now “digital to the core," according to Gartner (registration required).
Does DevOps Plus Open Source Equal Security?
There is a cost to prioritizing speed over software quality. Today’s CIO is in a tough spot. As one of the fastest-growing professions, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, we are seeing more newly promoted CIOs enter the job market than ever before.
The Upward Trend Of Software Breaches: Four Priorities For Technology Leaders In The Wake Of Equifax
It’s common knowledge that software is eating the world, but I would argue that software complexity is, quite frankly, eating our lunch. No matter how talented your software engineers or brilliant the agile processes you put in place, we will never be able to create a truly perfect system. This is why we continue to see ransomware attacks carried out against major companies, including HBO, Sony and the recent breach of very sensitive consumer credit data in Equifax.
Three Steps To Using Self-Healing Software
Software development is undergoing a revolution. We’ve reached a critical period in which development, operations and business teams are coming to a head. There’s hardly a company -- a successful one at least -- that isn't relying on software, meaning that software quality, security and efficiency are increasingly becoming essential to running an effective business.
The Holistic Approach: Preventing Software Disasters
When it comes to protecting a business against software catastrophes, most CIOs dump vast sums into traditional IT testing. In some IT shops, testing can even account for as much as 30 percent of the total application development and maintenance spending. Yet despite this spending spree, devastating software glitches continue to make headlines weekly, almost becoming a daily occurrence as digital transformations expose more and more IT systems to the world via online portals, mobile apps and more.
