The Secure Developer

On today’s episode, Guy Podjarny talks to Alyssa Miller, a security advocate who is here to talk about everything DevSpecOps. Alyssa begins by detailing her extensive experience from working in FinTech to becoming a penetration tester, security evangelist, team leader, and security consultant. After talking about her experience with app security, Alyssa shares her perspective of the tech world and the incredible changes that have emerged over the past two years, including the rise of cloud technology and the use of docker images. Then Guy and Alyssa talk about Snyk’s DevSecOps Hub — a tool that guides organizations in implementing DevSpecOps into their organizations. Along with theory on the topic, the hub is filled with practical advice as it relates to DevSpecOps culture, the ‘people components’ of a business, processes, and technology. The Hub also has a space for people to share how they’ve implemented and matured their DevSpecOps models. Throughout the conversation, Alyssa draws on her experience to provide insights on DevSpecOps, emphasizing the need for a model that integrates continual improvement, shared responsibility, and an aim for greater security.
