New eBook highlights potential challenges for CISOs
ynopsys has published an
eBook which chronicles
six security issues a CISO
might face – and offers advice on
how to prevent them.
S
The central character of the eBook
– which is titled The CISO’s Terrible,
Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day – is
Alex, the CISO at mobile app start-up
FilmFestFun.
Alex is having a very bad day. In the
run-up to his company launching
its new app, everything that could
go wrong has gone wrong – and
then some. The train’s late. The
build keeps failing. The pen tester
finds hundreds of bugs. Alex tries
explaining to CEO Kyla that releasing
an app with critical vulnerabilities is a
very bad move.
But she’s not having any of it.
FilmFestFun has already spent
millions on that night’s launch party
and she wants the app now.
Find out what Alex has learned about
why cutting corners on software security
testing could end up costing more than
what was saved.
