FutureTalks Security Panel

Building Security In ? *

Everybody wants to write secure code, and yet it’s hard to find a dev team that truly owns application security. Instead, a small and external security team is tasked with keeping the constant and large amount of produced functionality secure. As we can see in daily headlines, this approach is not working, and is breaking down further in the face of high efficiency continuous deployment.

How can we fix it?

In this panel, three experts who deal with this problem on a daily basis will debate the ways dev teams can step up and build security in, touching best practices, tools, where to get started and much more.
