A software development manager wants to ensure the authenticity of the code created by the company. Which of the following options is the most appropriate?
A.
Testing input validation on the user input fields
B.
Performing code signing on company-developed software
C.
Performing static code analysis on the software
Code signing involves applying a digital signature to software, verifying the identity of the developer and ensuring that the code has not been altered or tampered with since it was signed. This process provides assurance of the authenticity and integrity of the software. Testing input validation, performing static code analysis, and ensuring secure cookies are important security practices but do not specifically address the need to verify the authenticity of the code.
Authenticity Verification: Code signing assures users and developers that the code is genuine and originates from a legitimate source. If the code is altered, the digital signature becomes invalid, alerting users to potential tampering.
B. Performing code signing on company-developed software
