ACERCA DE ESTE EPISODIO
In today’s episode I’m speaking with Scott Gerlach, chief security officer and Co-Founder of the cyber security firm StackHawk, about shifting cyber security left, the practice of moving the responsibility for ensuring secure applications out of production and closer to the developers actually creating the code.
Shifting left helps repair the broken cyber security feedback loop between software developers and IT operations. It is faster, better, and cheaper to fix problems during the application development or update process. But that is not how most software shots run today.
There are a lot of reasons for this but chief among them is developers are not cyber security professionals. They do not have the knowledge or training they need to spot problems before they become vulnerabilities.
