Security testing in development catches missing or incorrect syntax validation.
Secure development life cycle mandates input validation to ensure syntactic correctness.
Application security requirements explicitly call for validation of input syntax.
Secure architecture principles reduce the likelihood of missing syntactic checks.
Secure coding standards directly require proper syntactic validation of all inputs.
