Top reasons that security system is a must in software QA testing

 Security testing involves the process of determining any drawbacks in the security aspect of the software or the system. Remember that in QA testing the focus is not just on checking if the service requirements are being fulfilled. It is equally important to check if the security requirements are being fulfilled.

Take a look at some of the reasons for doing security QA:

When security testing is included in software quality and testing then it becomes possible to check if there are any security issues in the product before its launch. If these flaws are determined before the release of the product, then corrective measures can be taken, and only after that, the product is launched.

Just imagine if a product that has security loopholes reaches the audiences then it can result in serious consequences. There can be data breaches of confidential data and your client may never trust you again.

Security test checks if the software has any vulnerabilities which can result in security issues. The security QA tests check the server security and the security of the client side of the software.

As a software development company, you are assuring the client that you shall give them high-quality software. Now high-quality software is not just software that meets the end user's objectives. It also has to be secure software and for this software security testing is a must.

In security testing, different aspects like cookies, password encryption, permissions, etc are checked. Fixing the security issues during the development process is cost-effective as compared to fixing them after the launch of the product.

So, make sure that in the QA testing of the software security testing is also carried out by the QA tester.
