Closing the Software Understanding Gap

This report is intended as a call to action for the U.S. government to take decisive and coordinated action to close the software understanding gap. This gap arises from a disparity of technical investment where software production has outstripped investment in improving understanding for decades. By closing the software understanding gap, the United States will help mission owners and operators trust the system is functional, safe, and secure, and support confidence in national security and critical infrastructure systems.
