ISACA Cyber Pro Chats with Naomi Buckwalter

ISACA’s Cyber Pro, Jon Brandt, invites information security guru, Naomi Buckwalter, Director of Information Security and IT to the podcast to discuss hot and heavy topics within Cybersecurity and the IT industry. Listen in as they hash out the current and future trends. 

What Will it Take to Reach DevSecOps Maturity?

While our development teams have been busy running full speed ahead using the latest and greatest technology to build amazing products, security teams haven’t always been known to keep the same pace – and we have reached a point of “developer revolt.” Security teams are still too often viewed as producers of “design constraints” by development teams versus “reliable partners” in helping them build better software. The path to changing this is getting security more tightly integrated into the DevOps pipeline – and working to make security even more of everyone’s responsibility. In this podcast Shannon Lietz, Adobe’s VP of Vulnerability Labs, will discuss some of the opportunities for security teams to become trusted partners, providing a roadmap for how DevSecOps needs to evolve to reach necessary maturity, and discuss some of the efforts that can help the broader security industry get better at this essential security muscle.
