Summary

Most organizations today recognize the critical importance of security today. But at the same time, development teams are pushed to move faster, deliver quicker and more frequently, and to behave autonomously. It can be tough to meet these twin demands.

In this episode, our co-hosts, Rebecca Parsons and Mike Mason explore the ideas of DevSecOps, which seeks to bake security into the development process. They’re joined by Cade Cairns a former Tech Principal at ThoughtWorks, and Ken Mugrage, Technology Advocate for ThoughtWorks Products.
