Addressing Today’s Software Risks Requires an Assurance Educated Workforce : Carnegie Mellon University , March 19 , 2025
From the document: “Major Government Modernization Programs are attempting adoption of commercially successful approaches to improve delivery speed and reduce cost such as:
- Hardware-based solution replaced by Software-intensive system
- Waterfall methodology replaced by Agile, DevSecOps, MBSE approaches
- Program owned infrastructure replaced by Shared infrastructures (Cloud)
Potentially unintended consequences:
- Shifts in key responsibilities to different acquisition program participants without training and knowledge in how to address them
- Gaps in software understanding needed to address management and engineering change to produce software assured products
- Added complexity, interfaces, and supply chain/technology risk”
