We were evaluating other tools in the space, and based on our criteria and requirements, IriusRisk came out on top. That was predominantly because it had the flexibility for us to define our own custom risk libraries and an API where we could integrate our existing security testing.

Increase speed of deployment
The public sector has seen increasing pressure to move towards a product-centric deployment strategy.
Rather than reinventing the wheel, these organizations should look to products and business outcomes with proven technologies, architecture and security models behind them, rapidly increasing the speed of deployment for internal customers with timelines of weeks – not months.
Digital transformation
Consequently, a range of public sector organizations are undergoing a change in their structure, approach and cultural behaviour. The introduction of new products and processes as part of these organizations’ digital transformation, aligning their IT services with their business requirements and outcomes and then demonstrating this to wider governing bodies.
Security is paramount in this. Government departments and other public sector bodies are responsible for protecting their own networks and systems. As holders of significant data and providers of services, stringent measures must be put in place by companies in the public sector in order to safeguard this.
IriusRisk integrates threat modeling into the native SDLC, meaning engineers and developers become their own security experts and can correct any faults then and there – streamlining the whole life cycle, reducing costs and solidifying security in all products.
