Insights from experts shaping secure development

In den letzten Jahren wurden viele Dinge auf dem Altar der schnellen Markteinführung geopfert — Dinge wie Netzwerksicherheit, Terabyte an sensiblen Kundendaten und unbezahlbarer Markenruf.

Wenn es jemals etwas gab, das Weihnachten in der Cybersicherheitsbranche ruinieren könnte, dann ist es eine verheerende Datenschutzverletzung, die auf dem besten Weg ist, das größte Cyberspionageereignis zu werden, von dem die US-Regierung je betroffen ist.

Wenn es um sicheres Code-Training für Entwickler geht, lassen die Bildungsergebnisse zu wünschen übrig. Viele Unternehmen geben viel aus, nur um in der Praxis nur minimale Renditen zu erzielen. Und kein Wunder.

Kamer van Koophandel shares how it embedded secure coding into everyday development through role-based certifications, Trust Score benchmarking, and a culture of shared security ownership.

See how Paysafe's partnership with Secure Code Warrior led to a 45% boost in developer productivity and a major reduction in code vulnerabilities.

DigitalOcean's use of Secure Code Warrior training has significantly reduced security debt, allowing teams to focus more on innovation and productivity. The improved security has strengthened their product quality and competitive edge. Looking ahead, the SCW Trust Score will help them further enhance security practices and continue driving innovation.

Secure code should be grounded more in concepts like secure by default and secure by design than by “spot the vuln” thinking. Matias Madou shares his experience in secure coding training and the importance of teaching critical thinking. He also discusses why critical thinking is so closely related to threat modeling and how LLMs can be a tool for helping developers get beyond the superficial advice of, “Think like an attacker.”

Organizations are at an inflection point driven by the explosive adoption of AI, which promises significant changes in how businesses operate. That leaves CISOs on unsteady ground. As the gatekeepers of their organization’s data and access, they must ensure the security of the enterprise. However, the prospects of a headlong charge into wide-ranging, and possibly unchecked, use of AI could create a flood of security issues that many CISOs, under their current organizational structures, aren’t equipped to handle.

Security leaders and developers alike are already acutely aware that AI coding assistants and agentic agents can introduce vulnerabilities into the code they generate. A recent study unveiled another critical concern to keep them up at night — LLMs used for making iterative code improvements may introduce new vulnerabilities over time, even when explicitly asked to make code more secure.
