ORDNUNG! PRÄZISION! SPEZIFIKATION! Why Secure Software Begins Before the First Line of Code
Abstract
Developers spend enormous effort fixing defects that should never have existed. The root cause is often not poor coding. It is poor requirements.
This presentation introduces Spec-Driven Development, a disciplined engineering approach where precise, security-aware specifications become the foundation for implementation, testing, code review, and AI-assisted development. You'll learn practical techniques for writing requirements that are measurable, verifiable, and resistant to ambiguity, allowing both humans and AI to consistently produce secure software.
Because secure code starts with secure specifications and engineering discipline.4 attendees
