Through the Secure by Design pledge, CISA hopes
to encourage technology manufacturers to design products with
stronger built-in security capabilities
SailPoint Technologies, Inc., a leader in unified identity
security for enterprises, today announced that the company has
signed onto the Secure by Design pledge developed by the
Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA). The new
pledge commits technology manufacturers to seven distinct goals,
each of which is designed to increase the safety and security of
software solutions before they reach the market. As a leading voice
in the cybersecurity space, SailPoint hopes to encourage other
businesses to implement secure by design practices throughout the
product development process.
The Secure by Design pledge is voluntary and focused on
enterprise software products and services, including on-premises
software, cloud services, and software as a service (SaaS). It is
designed to build upon existing security frameworks and best
practices, including those developed by CISA and the National
Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), to provide a
framework that technology companies can use to advance a secure by
design posture.
“Every technology provider is an unwitting part of the cyber
battle space. But unlike in the physical world, there’s no cyber
army coming to our rescue. Each of us is responsible for the
security of our products and, by extension, the security of those
we serve,” said Rex Booth, CISO, SailPoint. “The Secure by Design
pledge is a great way to promote a sense of communal responsibility
among those of us with the greatest potential for impact. At
SailPoint, we are proud to join our peers and support this
important initiative.”
“More secure software is our best hope to protect against the
seemingly never-ending scourge of cyberattacks facing our nation. I
am glad to see leading software manufacturers recognize this by
joining us at CISA to build a future that is more secure by
design,” said Jen Easterly, Director, CISA. “I applaud the
companies who have already signed our pledge for their leadership
and call on all software manufacturers to take the pledge and join
us in creating a world where technology is safe and secure right
out of the box.”
A more detailed breakdown of the Secure by Design pledge goals
can be found on the CISA website.
The pledge encourages signatories to publicly document their
progress over the course of the next year, allowing potential
partners and customers to monitor how organizations are progressing
toward their objectives. To learn more about SailPoint’s market
