CISO perspective – Shifting AppSec to Enable Business Growth and Adoption
Hosted by Checkmarx
Digital transformation is a top priority for C-suites and boards around the world, creating an opportunity to reframe the role of the modern CISO to secure digital transformation. This positioning offers a chance for greater alignment between security, development, and the rest of the business – and application security has a major role to play in aligning these interests.
Join this Town Hall to discuss the changing role of CISO and security teams in relation to engagement with key stakeholders, such as development teams, around their security priorities, including:
- Business Growth: Best practices on how DevOps, Security and Technology teams should collaborate to deliver secure applications and accelerate transformation
- Developer Buy-In: Stories and case studies on overcoming developer experience and engagement to maximise the value of AppSec
- Leadership Buy-In: How to translate the value of AppSec to management and the board to increase investment in security transformation
