Today, CISA—along with U.S. and international partners—released joint guidance, Safe Software Deployment: How Software Manufacturers Can Ensure Reliability for Customers. This guide aids software manufacturers in establishing secure software deployment processes to help ensure software is reliable and safe for customers. Additionally, it offers guidance on how to deploy in an efficient manner as part of the software development lifecycle (SDLC).
A well-designed software deployment process can help guarantee customers receive new features, security, and reliability while minimizing unplanned outages.
CISA encourages software and service manufacturers review this guide, evaluate their software deployment processes, and address them through a continuous improvement program.
