These agendas are represented by the new set of templates available for Team Foundation Server 2010. The actual Security Development Lifecycle itself is a seven-stage process, the middle five of which (shown above in green) can be automated through best practices agendas.
RegEgFuzz was also updated it’s a tool that “fuzzes” regular expressions that a program may parse, to see if it can trigger a vulnerability there. Today, Microsoft confirmed to RWW that they no longer have to jerry-rig it support for TFS 2010 is built in. MiniFuzz did support TFS 2007, and developers have jerry-rigged it to use TFS 2010. It’s not new at all, and in fact, developers have been using it with Visual Studio 2010… but apparently not all that well, particularly with respect to Team Foundation Server 2010. Whenever your application uses a type of file, MiniFuzz attempts various contortions of that file to see if it can trigger a stack overflow, or some kind of vulnerability that can be exploited. These tools help developers spot potential vulnerabilities in their code.Īnybody who’s watched a demo from one of Microsoft’s security developers has probably seen MiniFuzz, an automated tool designed to do a little mischief with applications you’re building. Along with that support comes the latest revision to the company’s threat modeling tool, and some new “things to do” for the list: two fuzzing tools designed to take down insecure apps. On Wednesday, the company initiated public support of its SDL template in the tool that most Windows developers use today (at least, those who aren’t using the VS2012 beta): Visual Studio 2010. The Security Development Lifecycle (SDL) is a set of best practices originally developed by Microsoft for Microsoft, to compel its own engineers to start incorporating better security practices as far back as the architecture stage. For large software development teams, Microsoft Visual Studio has one feature whose functionality actually resembles that of Outlook in one regard: The addition of workflow templates gives team members manageable lists of tasks to be done.
