  • Measurable: Measured through security code reviews, automated security scanning (e.g., SonarQube), and penetration testing results.
  • Achievable: Achieved by integrating secure coding practices into the SDLC, performing regular security audits, and training developers on OWASP security best practices.
  • Realistic: Secure coding is an industry standard and critical for preventing security breaches.
  • Timely: Implemented from the start of development, with ongoing monitoring and periodic security assessments.
