Framework of Risk Management & Analysis (FoRMA) for Secure Software Development
Presented by: Kris Kahn, Sr. Governance Analyst, Seagate Technology
Abstract: We frequently apply Risk Management concepts in our daily lives, whether it’s driving in the rain on the freeway, or crossing a busy intersection. It comes down to making a choice, taking a calculated risk to reach our objective. We decide quickly, making assumptions about the threats and about our environment. The lessons we learn from our failures help us make wiser decisions next time, if we survive.

Using a new Framework of Risk Management & Analysis (FoRMA) for Secure Software Development, we will be able to make better decisions by understanding our threats. FoRMA will help us ensure that we have the appropriate level of protection to maximize our business objectives, increasing quality and minimizing cost.
