Every piece of software may have bugs that hinder its functionality. Sometimes those bugs can cause security issues. Those issues could be then turned against the user. That’s the exact reason why it’s so important to run an efficient QA process during the development. Regular updates to the already deployed code further help to prevent exploitation.
Security of online transactions, but also of all the websites that process personal data, remains very important for business owners of all verticals. Many of them rely on well-known solutions, such as SSL certificates – which became industry standard, and are now required by parties like Google, to be treated as a secure website. By complying with SSL standards, a website is indexed higher, and the SEO score rises. However, are those certificates really as secure as we all consider them to be?
The biggest concern about the whole issue of Security tests in software development, is the fact, that they are often completely omitted part of the cycle. This tendency can be spotted especially in the projects that have a very tight budget – we’ve discussed it last month in the article of the importance of QA – where it relates to the budget cuts and redirection of the resources towards the “creative” part of the development process.
We just got some exciting news here at Codelabs.rocks! Danny Ehlrich, a Clutch analyst and their representative who takes care of our cooperation, just called us to let us know that our hard work has paid up. After a couple of months on the platform, we were nominated to the prestigious list of top Polish developers in 2020.
The decision has been made. Your business struggles with the expanding processes, bureaucratic problems, circulation of documents, and collaboration between all employees. You’ve scouted the market for out-of-the-box solutions, checked dozens of those – your team spent effort and resources to adapt those solutions to your business – but in the end – generic features and no possibility to tackle your specific needs turned the project into a failure.
