hi sc-l, Today Cigital published Release 6 of the Building Security In Maturity Model (BSIMM). The BSIMM now represents eight years of bringing science to the software security. We have directly measured over 104 companies across multiple industries (BSIMM6 covers 78 of them). BSIMM6 also includes the addition of healthcare as a one of the well-represented verticals (10 firms or more).
Opinion is rife in computer security, and software security as well. BSIMM6 provides a set of facts to both counter and ground opinion in reality. Want to know what the ratio of software security professionals to developers is? The BSIMM knows. BSIMM6 describes the work of 1,084 SSG members working with a satellite of 2,111 people to secure the software developed by 287,006 developers The BSIMM is a free resource published under the creative commons. Please use it in your own work.
