The document discusses approaches to building secure web applications, including establishing software security processes and maturity levels. It covers security activities like threat modeling, defining security requirements, secure coding standards, security testing, and metrics. Business cases for software security focus on reducing costs of vulnerabilities, threats to web apps, and root causes being application vulnerabilities and design flaws.

11. Tactical View: Finding Vulnerabilities Automated Vulnerability Scanning Automated Static Code Analysis Manual Penetration Testing Manual Code Review

12. Strategic View: Manage Software Risks

13. Holistic View: Software vs. Application Security Security applied by catch and patches Security built into each phase of the SDLC Look at root problem causes Look at external symptoms Reactive, Incident Response, Compliance Proactive, Threat Modeling, Secure Code Reviews
