Building Secure and Compliant Products
In the digital age, cyber crimes are on the rise. While not every organization will have the hard compliance requirements of a bank or a government agency, the security standards and best practices for those highly regulated environments can and should be generalized to your platform. Security at every layer of an organization helps to prevent a security breach down the line.
By the end of this chapter, you should have gained a better understanding of security standards, frameworks, and trends.
