DOMAIN 4: SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT SECURITY

Overview

Software development security domain refers to the controls that are included within systems and applications software and the steps used in their development. Software refers to system software (operating systems) and application programs (agents, applets, software, databases, data warehouses, and knowledge-based systems). These applications may be used in distributed or centralized environments.

The candidate should fully understand the security and controls of the systems development process, system life cycle, application controls, change controls, data warehousing, data mining, knowledge-based systems, program interfaces, and concepts used to ensure data and application integrity, security, and availability.

Key Areas of Knowledge

Understand and apply security in the software development life cycle.

1. Development life cycle

2. Maturity models

3. Operation and maintenance

4. Change management

Understand the environment and security controls.

1. Security of the software environment

2. Security issues of programming languages

3. Security issues in source code such as buffer overflow, escalation of privilege, and backdoor

4. Configuration management

Assess the effectiveness of software security.

1. Certification and accreditation such as system authorization

2. Auditing and logging

3. Risk analysis and mitigation

DOMAIN 5: CRYPTOGRAPHY

Overview

The cryptography domain addresses the principles, means, and methods of disguising information to ensure its integrity, confidentiality, and authenticity.

Procedures and protocols that meet some or all of the above criteria are known as cryptosystems. Cryptosystems are often thought to refer only to mathematical procedures and computer programs; however, they also include the regulation of human behavior, such as choosing hard-to-guess passwords, logging off unused systems, and not discussing sensitive procedures with outsiders.

The candidate is expected to know the basic concepts within cryptography; public and private key algorithms in terms of their applications and uses; algorithm construction, key distribution and management, and methods of attack; the applications, construction, use of digital signatures to provide authenticity of electronic transactions, and nonrepudiation of the parties involved; and the organization and management of the public key infrastructures (PKIs) and digital certificates distribution and management.

Key Areas of Knowledge

1. Data at rest (e.g., Hard drive)

2. Data in transit (e.g., On the wire)
