Everyone in software development is under stress to make sure to not introduce any vulnerabilities to the application/code. If you do not have that mindset, then probably your security department will chase you after some scanning is being performed. They might run occasionally or on a scheduled basis some scans that might find vulnerabilities in your application. But, how do we minimize that possibility? It's not rocket science that you should first have a security-oriented mindset in your team, but also include some SCA (Source Composition Analysis), SAST (Static Application Security Testing), and DAST (Dynamic Application Security Testing) in your CI CD setup. 

In the world of software development, there's a key step that often gets overlooked or underestimated, but it's absolutely essential for the success of any project: testing requirements. Testing requirements encompass the processes and procedures that ensure a software application functions as intended and meets the needs of its users.

HOW SYSTEM VERIFICATION ADDS VALUE TO YOUR TECHNICAL DUE DILIGENCE PROCESS 

System Verification specialises primarily in supporting M&A transactions in which software companies are involved. In these cases, there is often a lot of focus on the software itself, and our Technical Due Diligence (TDD) is one of several parallel due diligence processes needed to cover the entire transaction process. Our approach and work methods are based on the knowledge and expertise we have accumulated from our 20+ years in software development and quality assurance. Thanks to this, and the specific evaluations we have added to the TDD process, in-depth data can quickly be generated on the software and precise derivatives formulated.This means that you, as an investor, can avoid any unpleasant surprises – you will have a clear picture of the quality of the software systems you are about to acquire.

Leveraging Bicep modules empowers teams to encapsulate and reuse resource configurations effectively, promoting consistency, modularity, and collaboration. As organizations strive to adhere to best practices for security and compliance, the use of private container registries for managing and distributing container images has gained significant traction. This introduces a layer of complexity to the deployment pipeline, as the integration of Bicep modules with private registries demands careful orchestration and configuration.
