Study Notes
System Development Life Cycle (SDLC)
- Planning phase includes reviewing project requests, prioritizing them, allocating resources, and forming a project development team.
- Analysis phase involves detailed activities such as studying the current system, determining user requirements, and recommending solutions.
- Design phase focuses on acquiring necessary hardware and software, and developing system specifications in detail.
- Implementation phase includes developing the program, testing the new system, and training users on its operation.
- Support phase revolves around identifying errors and enhancements, monitoring system performance, and making updates as required.
Security System Development Life Cycle (SecSDLC)
- SecSDLC mirrors the phases of traditional SDLC but emphasizes security throughout each step of the system development process.
- Includes managing cybersecurity risks to protect the Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability (C.I.A) of organizational information assets.
Planning and Analysis in SecSDLC
- Define potential impacts on the organization or individuals due to security breaches.
- Conduct preliminary risk assessments to describe initial security requirements.
Design in SecSDLC
- Perform comprehensive risk assessments and analyze security functional and assurance requirements.
- Develop a complete security plan that details the information system (IS) characteristics and its security needs.
Implementation in SecSDLC
- Involves inspection of the system, acceptance testing, and systematic integration of security controls.
Support in SecSDLC
- Monitors ongoing security levels, making updates as changes occur in the environment to maintain system integrity.
- Emphasizes continuous monitoring to adapt to new security challenges.
Comparison of SDLC and SecSDLC
- SecSDLC adheres to the same phases as standard SDLC but specifically identifies and addresses potential security threats.
- Effective planning within SecSDLC requires addressing all conceivable threats to ensure a robust information system.
