Secure Software Development

Security begins in product development, where we use secure coding methods and analysis tools. Veritas products undergo penetration testing by an independent third-party firm at least annually. The Product Security Group (PSG) also conducts internal scans as part of the release of a new product version. PSG manages schedules for pen testing and internal vulnerability scans. Our Secure Software Development Framework is modeled after NIST SP 800-218, a core set of software development practices focused on mitigating vulnerabilities.

National Institute of Standards and Technology

Veritas aligns to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) framework—a standard that addresses cyber resiliency as five key pillars: Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond and Recover. Ultimately, we measure ourselves with a simple question: Do our solutions and actions result in better protection of the world’s data and infrastructure?

  • Secure by Design: We design and build products in a way that reasonably protects against malicious cyber actors successfully gaining access to devices, data, and connected infrastructure.
  • Secure by Default: Our products are resilient against prevalent exploitation techniques out of the box without additional charge.

As the threat landscape continues to evolve, you will continue to see innovation in both areas to ensure we’re driving the right outcomes with simplicity for our customers.
