Microsoft Security Development Lifecycle


The Microsoft Security Development Lifecycle (SDL) is the industry-leading software security assurance process created by Microsoft. A Microsoft-wide initiative and a mandatory policy since 2004, the SDL has played a critical role in embedding security and privacy in Microsoft software and culture. Combining a holistic and practical approach, SDL introduces security and privacy early and throughout the development process. Microsoft is committed to supporting a more secure and trustworthy computing ecosystem by making SDL process guidance, tools and training more accessible to every developer.

The Microsoft SDL Pro Network is a group of security consultants and trainers that specialize in application security and have substantial experience and expertise with the methodology and technologies of the Microsoft SDL. As a charter member of the SDL Pro Network, Leviathan Security Group can assist you with all phases of the SDL, including:

 

  • Training, policy and organizational capabilities, including security training and general counsel on how to implement the SDL
  • Requirement and design, including risk analysis, functional requirements and threat modeling
  • Implementation, including use of safe APIs, code analysis and code review
  • Verification, including fuzzing and Web application scanning
  • Release and response, including Final Security Review (FSR), penetration testing, and response planning and execution
