Microsoft Reactor San Francisco

Developers deserve the chance to do the right thing. Leadership doesn’t always make it so easy. But in the face of mounting regulations and an ever-changing landscape of application security risks, the opportunity to turn obstacles into opportunities has never been more evident.

This week’s guests are industry leaders in the field of software governance. Caleb Queern is the Managing Director of Cybersecurity at KPMG. Michael Edenzon is the Co-Founder and CEO of Fianu, and previously served as the Director of DevOps at PNC Bank. In 2022, Michael and Caleb co-authored the business novel Investments Unlimited, a fictional story about a bank’s journey toward automated governance.

What began in 2019 as an industry-led whitepaper has become a movement encompassing AppSec, DevOps, and software supply chain security. At the heart of this movement are platforms like GitHub Advanced Security and Fianu.

Caleb and Michael will tell the story of automated governance, the successes and pitfalls of large enterprises that aim to implement it, and how the principles of flow, fast feedback, and continuous improvement can be preserved so that you and your organization can thrive amidst an ever-growing landscape of rules and regulations.

Learn how to leverage GitHub Copilot for automating repetitive tasks and increasing your development cycles. We’ll go through basic usage as well as newer features like interactive prompts and inline suggestions. At the end of the session, you may even receive a free GitHub certification voucher.*
