Secure Software Development

Secure Software without the Experts

Our unique and ground-breaking research examines how development teams achieve cyber-secure software. Our mission is to help the 100,000 developers in the UK, and others further afield, to become a step better at defending their software - especially those who don't have access to security specialists.

Based on a three-year research project, we have developed a lightweight facilitation package to empower software developers at software security. We work with teams in industry, helping them introduce cost-effective security techniques. Take a look at the project page.

Do you work with software developers? Would you like our help - for free - to improve your organisation's software security? We're offering free interventions to the first six organisations to sign up.
