Essential DevSecOps: Securing Modern Apps with Help of High Performing Dev Teams

As more companies undergo digital transformation and software is released more frequently, application security is moving from an opportunity to an imperative. However, AppSec as a process requires cooperation with software developers - a team whose time is heavily in demand from every customer-facing part of the organization. How do security teams improve AppSec without slowing down business and finding themselves at odds with the rest of the organization? For DevSecOps to succeed it must take cues from the DevOps revolution that came before it. Teams need to learn new tools that address the new problems that arise from the evolution of IT. Smart use of automation can create transparent processes that handle routine work between teams without creating friction. And most importantly, adopting a supportive, rather than authoritative, mindset makes it possible for teams to move quickly together while achieving their respective missions. On April 26, 2022 at 1:00 p.m. Eastern/10:00 a.m. Pacific, ShiftLeft and (ISC)² will provide an overview of application security that covers key tools, best practices, and a primer on working effectively with your colleagues in AppDev and DevOps in order to make modern software more secure.
