Microsoft SDL (Security Development Lifecycle)

The Microsoft Security Development Lifecycle (SDL) is a process that Microsoft uses to improve the security of its software products. It involves steps that developers follow throughout the software creation process, from planning to testing and release. This includes identifying potential security threats, implementing protective measures, conducting thorough testing for vulnerabilities, and educating the team about security practices. By integrating security into every stage of development, Microsoft aims to create safer products that better protect users from cyber threats and reduce the risk of security issues after the software is launched.
