Nixu's software security modules

Nixu has developed a practical approach for secure software development. With this approach, all security aspects are taken into consideration and included in the software development processes and practices.

Nixu's approach combines the best human, process and tool-oriented security development practices with software engineering. In information security both the security-critical functionality part and all the non-functional requirements have to be taken into account.

With the help of Nixu's information security modules, the client can be sure that the end result really is secure.

Nixu's security modules

Nixu's model for secure software development can be utilized regardless of the client's process model. Single modules are not tied in with the used process model. Security modules cover the following entities, for example:

  1. Requirements and risk analysis
  2. Architectural analysis
  3. Applying best practices
  4. Detecting vulnerabilities
  5. Auditing and analyzing the code
  6. Security testing
  7. Analyzing the deployment requirements

Examples of modules
