The PCI DSS is demonstrably becoming a de facto standard of due care for any organization responsible for the privacy and integrity of data. The increased focus on application security in the latest revisions of the PCI DSS can be traced directly to many of the recent high profile breaches, where insecure applications have proved to be the point of access for hackers, and the source of data loss.

Preventing Your Next Microsoft Exchange Outage |
|
|
Messaging has rapidly become the one, true business critical application in use today by many, probably most, enterprises. Even more so than Enterprise Resource Planning or other cross-business applications, any failure in the messaging system is noticed by, and affects everyone. If a person cannot get an e-mail to or from another person then they are immediately in contact with the help desk to report the problem. Users are far less inclined to be forgiving when it comes to an e-mail outage; they just expect it to work.

Secure at the Source: Implementing Source Code Vulnerability Testing in the Development Life Cycle |
|
|
Organizations should implement source code analysis tools as part of the software development life cycle to find and fix the highest number of security issues early in the project. This will result in a higher-quality product and lower overall application life cycle costs. Countless studies and analyst recommendations suggest the value of improving software security during the development life cycle (SDLC) rather than trying to address security vulnerabilities in software discovered after widespread adoption and deployment.
