Secure by Design Changes Who Owns Cybersecurity Risk
Technology teams are moving quickly in secure by design, but useful adoption depends on understanding both the opportunity and the operational risk.
What is changing
Customers cannot compensate for insecure defaults in every product they buy. Vendors are better positioned to eliminate entire defect classes and ship protective controls enabled by default.
What technology leaders should do
Remove default passwords, enable MFA and logging, publish support periods and track vulnerability classes as product-quality metrics.
The practical goal is not to adopt every new capability. It is to choose a clear use case, establish measurable success criteria, and build security and accountability into the system from the beginning.
