A successful strategy in appsec is to build platforms with defaults and designs that ease the burden of security choices for developers. But there's an important difference between expecting (or requiring!) developers to use a platform and building a platform that developers embrace. Julia Knecht shares her experience in building platforms with an attention to developer needs, developer experience...

How do we get security right? The answer varies by many factors, including industry, what you're trying to protect, and what the C Suite and Board care about. Khaja Ahmed, Advisor at CISO Forum, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss how to get consensus on your security program. CISOs, executives, and the Board need to be aligned on the risks and how best to address them. And it's not technica...

AI is more than LLMs. Machine learning algorithms have been part of infosec solutions for a long time. For appsec practitioners, a key concern is always going to be how to evaluate the security of software or a system. In some cases, it doesn't matter if a human or an LLM generated code -- the code needs to be reviewed for common flaws and design problems. But the creation of MCP servers and LLM-b...

Are you running SAP? The clock is ticking... Standard maintenance end-of-life is set for the end of 2027. Migration to S/4HANA must be completed by then (or 2030 if you buy into SAP's special three-year reprieve). While that may appear to be enough time, companies currently working toward an S/4HANA transition are finding the journey challenging, and that's not including the security challenges. C...

What are some appsec basics? There's no monolithic appsec role. Broadly speaking, appsec tends to branch into engineering or compliance paths, each with different areas of focus despite having shared vocabularies and the (hopefully!) shared goal of protecting software, data, and users. The better question is, "What do you want to secure?" We discuss the Cybersecurity Skills Framework put together...

Segment 1: Interview with Monzy Merza - There is a Right and Wrong Way to use AI in the SOC In the rush to score AI funding dollars, a lot of startups build a basic wrapper around existing generative AI services like those offered by OpenAI and Anthropic. As a result, these services are expensive, and don't satisfy many security operations teams' privacy requirements. This is just the tip of the i...

Appsec still deals with ancient vulns like SQL injection and XSS. And now LLMs are generating code along side humans. Sandy Carielli and Janet Worthington join us once again to discuss what all this new code means for appsec practices. On a positive note, the prevalence of those ancient vulns seems to be diminishing, but the rising use of LLMs is expanding a new (but not very different) attack sur...

Single Sign On (SSO) and Multi Factor Authentication (MFA) is critical to secure operations for companies of all sizes. Why is the foundation of cybersecurity still locked behind enterprise licensing? Single Sign-On (SSO) and Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) are essential—not optional—for protecting modern businesses. But today, these critical tools are overpriced, overcomplicated, and reserved f...

New research estimates the value of Zero Trust. Using the Marsh McLennan Cyber Risk Intelligence Center's proprietary cyber losses dataset from the past eight years, researchers estimated that overall cyber losses could have been potentially reduced by up to 31% had the organizations widely deployed zero-trust security. This adds up to a projected reduction of up to $465 billion in global annual t...
