Abstract

This paper explores the push toward more "bottom-up" design strategies for the creation of web applications, a push which has produced a strengthening of code auditing, training, and education. Part of that push arises from compliance issues, particularly government regulations such as Sarbanes- Oxley and PCI DSS, regulations which require long-term, cost-efficient strategies to maintain. In web application design, this means businesses must place greater emphasis on these bottom-up strategies.
