论文摘要

记者,公共政策分析师和经济学家呼吁人们注意高性能和科学计算对国家安全和工业领导力的重要性。随着计算几乎在每个学科上的科学进步,它也可以提高我们的经济生产力和生活质量。但是,研究软件的社会,政治和经济意义日益提高,也使软件安全问题脱颖而出。正如无意的软件错误可能威胁到科学研究的完整性一样,恶意参与者可以利用脆弱性来改变结果,渗透数据和破坏计算资源。在这本社论中,作者主张需要在整个研究软件生命周期中纳入安全实践和观点,他们为该领域的未来工作提出了指示。

Journalists, public policy analysts, and economists have called attention to the growing importance that high-performance and scientific computing have to national security and industrial leadership. As computing continues to power scientific advances in virtually every discipline, so too does it improve our economic productivity and quality of life. The increasing social, political, and economic importance of research software, however, has also brought the question of software security to the fore. Just as unintentional software errors can threaten the integrity of scientific studies, malicious actors could leverage vulnerabilities to alter results, exfiltrate data, and sabotage computing resources. In this editorial, the authors argue for the need to incorporate security practices and perspectives throughout the research software lifecycle, and they propose directions for future work in this space.
