Crime has a new face today; what earlier was a threat to human life through weapons is now done through data. Businesses are becoming highly susceptible to these attacks, also affecting them financially. You would be surprised to know the global average cost of a data breach in 2023 was USD 4.45 million, a 15% increase over three years. Says a report by IBM<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Undeniably, the consequence of security breaches can be devastating for any application or business. But is there a way to prevent these attacks?<\/p>\n

Well, if not entirely, a protective shield can be adopted right from designing the software development life cycle to guard your application. In addition to protection against vulnerabilities and cyber threats, a secured system architecture provides other benefits, which we will discuss as the article proceeds.<\/p>\n

Importance of Integrating Security in Software Development Lifecycle<\/strong><\/h2>\n

As cyber breaches become more sophisticated and frequent, it’s crucial to have a security architecture in place right from the development process to safeguard your digital assets. But what exactly does security architecture mean, and why should your organization invest in it?<\/p>\n

In simple terms, a security architecture framework is a set of principles and guidelines that help you implement security measures across different levels of your business. There are various international framework standards available, each designed to solve a specific problem. Three of the most commonly used security architecture frameworks are:<\/p>\n
