ISC2 Certified Secure Software Lifecycle Professional (CSSLP) Practice Question

During sprint planning, a development team wants to pull several open-source libraries from a public repository to speed delivery of a payment module. Based on SAFECode software assurance best-practice guidance, which approach most effectively reduces the risk of introducing insecure or malicious third-party components?

  • Scan every candidate library for known vulnerabilities and maintain ongoing monitoring and re-assessment as part of the project's secure supply-chain process.

  • Select only the most downloaded libraries in the repository, assuming high adoption indicates stronger community vetting.

  • Pin each dependency to a specific version in the build script so the code base never changes without explicit developer action.

  • Require that all third-party libraries carry an open-source license so their source code can be inspected if problems arise.
