Modern application development velocity has drastically changed how organizations approach securing their software products. In many environments, gone are the days of reviewing every code change, or putting up stringent release gates. This track focuses on how we are meeting the challenge of enabling business velocity while also achieving security.
Join us to talk about real and innovative strategies for scaling security in large, fast-moving environments. We’ll discuss scalable and practical approaches to: securing authentication & authorization architectures, cloud security, scaling privacy, and how this changing approach impacts the distribution of responsibility and the cost of security.
