Nowadays it is impossible to imagine a business without technology as most industries are becoming "smarter" and more tech-driven, ranging from small individual tech initiatives to complete business models with intertwined supply chains and "platform"-based business models. New ways of working, such as Agile and DevOps, have been introduced, leading to new risks. These risks come in the form of new challenges for teams working together in a distributed manner, privacy concerns, human autonomy, and cybersecurity concerns. Technology is now integrated into the business discipline and is here to stay leading to the need for a thorough understanding of how to address these risks and all the potential problems that could arise. With the advent of organized crime, such as hacks and denial-of-service attacks, all kinds of malicious actors are infiltrating the digital society in new and unique ways.
Systems with poor design, implementation, and configurations are easily taken advantage of. When it comes to integrating business and technology, there needs to be approaches for assuring security against risks that can threaten both businesses and their digital platforms. Strategic Approaches to Digital Platform Security Assurance offers comprehensive design science research approaches to extensively examine risks in digital platforms and offer pragmatic solutions to these concerns and challenges. This book addresses significant problems when transforming an organization embracing API-based platform models, the use of DevOps teams, and issues in technological architectures. Each section will examine the status quo for business technologies, the current challenges, and core success factors and approaches that have been used. This book is ideal for security analysts, software engineers, computer engineers, executives, managers, IT consultants, business professionals, researchers, academicians, and students who want to gain insight and deeper knowledge of security in digital platforms and gain insight into the most important success factors and approaches utilized by businesses.
