Why Security-First Development Helps You Ship Better Software Faster
#1about 4 minutes
The paradox of security and development speed
Security and reliability are foundational business needs, and focusing on them early can paradoxically accelerate the entire delivery lifecycle.
#2about 2 minutes
Optimizing for developer flow and experience
Security tools should be designed to preserve developer flow and minimize context switching to avoid making daily work miserable.
#3about 3 minutes
Integrating security across the development lifecycle
Security can be integrated at multiple stages, from initial project design and coding to the pre-commit and code review phases.
#4about 3 minutes
Understanding static analysis security testing (SAST)
Static analysis tools scan source code, infrastructure as code, containers, and dependencies to find vulnerabilities before the code is run.
#5about 4 minutes
Exploring dynamic analysis security testing (DAST)
Dynamic analysis tests running systems through techniques like web application scanning, API fuzzing, and overload testing to find runtime vulnerabilities.
#6about 3 minutes
Scaling AppSec teams by empowering developers
Shifting security responsibilities to developers helps the typically smaller AppSec team scale and focus on systemic architectural problems.
#7about 2 minutes
Future trends including AI and platform consolidation
The future of security involves AI-powered remediation and consolidated development platforms that embed security policies for the entire organization.
#8about 2 minutes
Key requirements for effective security tools
Modern security tools must be accurate to avoid false positives, provide context, and offer automated remediation to be truly effective.
