The development unit itself maintains a list of criteria that need to be met before a task can be marked as completed. The criteria may include e.g. review requirements, documentation requirements and testing requirements.

New code will only be implemented after extensive testing that meets pre-defined criteria. Tests should cover usability, security, effects on other systems, and user-friendliness.

General rules for reviewing, approving and publishing the code have been defined and enforced.

The rules may include e.g. the following things:

• the generated code has been validated against the general safe development guidelines of the OWASP Framework
• the code has been reviewed by at least two people
• the changes have been approved by a designated, authorized user prior to publication
• the system documentation has been updated before release
• the time of publication of the changes has been chosen in accordance with the given instructions in order to minimize disruption to business processes
• the instructions needed by users have been updated before the code is released

The rules are intended to manage the risks associated with the release of new program code.

The definition of security-critical code for the various services is maintained. New parts of the critical code are constantly being identified and new updates are being checked particularly closely for changes to the critical code. The aim is to keep the likelihood of security vulnerabilities to a minimum.
