Changing the industry with CISA’s Secure by Design principles

The United States Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Agency (CISA) and its international partners are promoting 'Secure by Design' principles to encourage software manufacturers to prioritize security in their product development process. This involves designing products with strong security capabilities that are configured by default. Cloudflare, a cybersecurity company, supports these principles and has implemented them in its products and services. The 'Secure by Design' approach is crucial as the world becomes increasingly reliant on technology and internet-connected devices, which can be exploited by attackers if not properly secured. By adhering to CISA's guidelines, manufacturers can enhance security benefits for customers, boost their brand reputation, and reduce long-term maintenance and patching costs.
