In software development, information security is paramount. Here are five key control practices for secure software development:

1️⃣ Secure Design Principles: Applying secure design principles helps build robust and resilient software. It involves designing software architecture that incorporates security controls, such as data encryption, access controls, and secure user authentication.

2️⃣ Code Review and Testing: Conducting thorough code reviews and testing helps identify vulnerabilities and weaknesses in the software’s code. This includes manual code reviews, automated static code analysis, and dynamic testing to ensure the software is secure.

3️⃣ Secure Configuration Management: Secure configuration management focuses on properly configuring software components and systems. It includes securely managing credentials, disabling unnecessary services, and following secure configuration guidelines.
