Every security update you rushed to install this month exists because a software manufacturer shipped a security defect in the first place.
The operator is the last line of defense. The manufacturer is the first. This month’s advice is almost all about the last.
That’s the idea behind the Secure by Design Story Cards: 90 cards that break the core ideas of secure-by-design software into small pieces you can pick up, argue with, and bring into engineering reviews, board meetings, procurement calls, and policy debates.
They’re written for everyone who shapes software security: makers, buyers, executives, regulators, developers. The problem doesn’t respect org charts, so the conversation shouldn’t either.
