Will CISA's Secure by Design pledge be a catalyst for better software security?

This Security Boulevard article covers CISA's Secure by Design pledge, which 68 software makers, including Cisco, Google, and Amazon Web Services, signed to strengthen security within a year. Casey Ellis, CTO of Bugcrowd, praises the response, saying the goals are achievable with corporate will and funding, though doing security well is the biggest challenge.

Source description, as published

The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) took advantage of the RSA Conference this year to boost its efforts to get wider adoption of Secure by Design practices for increasing software security. At the event, the CISA announced that 68 software makers — including Akamai, Amazon Web Services, Cisco, Google, HP, IBM, Lenovo, and Microsoft — had pledged to build greater security into their products over the coming year.
