Keynote: Maturing Your Application Security Program
After working with over 300 companies on their application security programs the most common question I receive is “what’s next?”. They want to know how to mature their programs, and when they look at the maturity models available, they find them intimidating and so far beyond their current maturity level that they feel impossible.
In this talk I will take you through 3 common AppSec program maturity levels I have encountered over the years, with practical and actionable next steps you could take immediately to improve your security posture.
