A new study conducted by Microsoft and comScore finds that many enterprise application development pros are not incorporating security into their processes. When surveyed, 42 percent of developers said security wasn’t a “top priority,” and 44 percent do not use a secure application program or process.
According to Microsoft’s Tim Rains, “cost is the primary reason for not using a security development process, followed by a lack of support and training—33 percent.”
Rains also noted that secure development often leads to cost savings overall.
