Secure Component Acquisition
PW.4.1: Acquire and maintain well-secured software components (e.g., software libraries, modules, middleware, frameworks) from commercial, open-source, and other third-party developers for use by the organization’s software.
  • Example 1: Review and evaluate third-party software components in the context of their expected use. If a component is to be used in a substantially different way in the future, perform the review and evaluation again with that new context in mind.
  • Example 2: Determine secure configurations for software components, and make these available (e.g., as configuration-as-code) so developers can readily use the configurations.
  • Example 3: Obtain provenance information (e.g., SBOM, source composition analysis, binary software composition analysis) for each software component, and analyze that information to better assess the risk that the component may introduce.
  • Example 4: Establish one or more software repositories to host sanctioned and vetted open-source components.
  • Example 5: Maintain a list of organization-approved commercial software components and component versions along with their provenance data.
  • Example 6: Designate which components must be included in software to be developed.
  • Example 7: Implement processes to update deployed software components to newer versions, and retain older versions of software components until all transitions from those versions have been completed successfully.
  • Example 8: If the integrity or provenance of acquired binaries cannot be confirmed, build binaries from source code after verifying the source code’s integrity and provenance.
CMMI Maturity
Not Applicable - Not applicable
Level 1: Initial - Unpredictable and reactive. Work gets completed but is often delayed and over budget.
Level 2: Managed - Managed on the project level. Projects are planned, performed, measured, and controlled.
Level 3: Defined - Proactive, rather than reactive. Organization-wide standards provide guidance across projects, programs, and portfolios.
Level 4: Quantitatively Managed - Measured and controlled. Organization is data-driven with quantitative performance improvement objectives that are predictable and align to meet the needs of internal and external stakeholders.
Level 5: Optimized - Stable and flexible. Organization is focused on continuous improvement and is built to pivot and respond to opportunity and change. The organization’s stability provides a platform for agility and innovation.
