Introduction to TSFdn
Virtually every aspect of our lives is touched by information technology running a diverse range of software; from the way we listen to music, the phones we carry with us, the vehicles we drive, to the computers that support the information economy. The trend to embed software in everyday items is accelerating. Our daily lives and industrial processes are now heavily reliant on a wide range of underpinning software. Yet the root cause of many problems is untrustworthy software There is a pressing need to address the quality and robustness of our software – to establish its “trustworthiness”. The TSFdn aims to collect, organise and share the wealth of knowledge, experience and capabilities that already exist in the UK public and private sectors and in academia about trustworthy software to give people a joined-up, curated view of the information that is available.
