Our Process

Four-Step Secure Development with SD Elements

Step 1: Information Gathering

Whether directly, or through integrations, SD Elements quickly collects vital details about your technology stack, deployment environment, and compliance requirements.

 

Even if you are only able to provide limited details, SD Elements’ dynamic survey and built-in logic can automatically identify and help prioritize your next steps, refining its guidance as more data is added over time.

Step 2: Developer-Centric Threat Modeling

SD Elements gathers information about your project and automatically generates threat modeling diagrams. By automating the generation of developer-centric software threat models, developers are able to efficiently identify threats and know exactly where to implement required countermeasures.
Step 3: Expert Assessment
Automatically identifying risks, threats, and potential weaknesses based on the information gathered, SD Elements helps you to understand your overall risk level, based on your pre-existing policies.

 

With this information, you can take a more strategic approach to managing application security, without creating queues, backlogs, or affecting time to market.
Step 4: Recommendations
SD Elements turns security and compliance requirements into recommendations and controls for your team. These can be integrated with your existing trackers like VersionOne, Jira, or Azure Boards.

 

Our always-evolving content library contains thousands of expert recommendations and aligns with regulatory standards from around the globe. SD Elements draws on this library to ensure that your compliance recommendations are always up to date.
Step 4: Validation and Reports
Track security task completion through SD Elements and integrations with tools such as Fortify, Veracode, or Checkmarx.

 

View quick metrics or instantly create status reports using your SD Elements’ dashboard, or gather granular information about each project, identifying where your security experts’ focus is most needed.
Step 5: Validation and Reports
Track security task completion through SD Elements and integrations with tools such as Fortify, Veracode, or Checkmarx.

 

View quick metrics or instantly create status reports using your SD Elements’ dashboard, or gather granular information about each project, identifying where your security experts’ focus is most needed.
