Risk-based quality engineering & traceability

The conversation stars with Adam Sandman tracing the evolution of Inflectra, which he founded to offer affordable quality assurance and test management solutions. Continuing on, Adam highlights how merely investing in cybersecurity solutions is insufficient, and only robust software development practices and thorough testing can prevent breaches. While, compliance and traceability can play key roles in verifying security measures and demonstrating adherence to regulators and stakeholders.

Huw Price states that organisations should be mapping their entire software ecosystem, identifying critical failure points, and adopting best practices in software development and quality assurance in order to mitigate data breach risks. This kind of proactive approach should also involve regular audits and continuous monitoring to protect sensitive information.

Rounding out the discussion, Huw, Rich and Adam discuss the challenges of system integrations and migrations, with Huw highlighting the importance of understanding legacy systems and maintaining integrity during transitions.
