Selecting Metrics for Software Assurance
The Software Assurance Framework (SAF) is a collection of cybersecurity practices that programs can apply across the acquisition lifecycle and supply chain. The SAF can be used to assess an acquisition program’s current cybersecurity practices and chart a course for improvement, ultimately reducing the cybersecurity risk of deployed, software-reliant systems. In this podcast, Dr. Carol Woody discusses the selection of metrics for measuring the software assurance of a product as it is developed and delivered to function in a specific system context.
