This briefing is based on the findings of a cross-sector task force of CISOs and staff who shared their challenges and best practices for addressing security within their applications development organizations. While NIST, OWASP, PCI-DSS, and other industry standards provide great guidance for security within the SDLC, newly evolving development platforms and methodologies and delivery pressures often push security requirements aside. The CISO’s challenge is to overcome the perception of security as a “roadblock” while ensuring that applications are not released with exploitable vulnerabilities. The CISO’s Guide offers strategies to help the CISO develop and improve the applications security program and overcome negative views of security as a development encumbrance.
Supporting tools that will be shown during the briefing include an Applications Security Self-Assessment that will help the CISO formulate program development and improvement strategies.
Please join members of the Task Force as they share visuals and key insights to help you improve the effectiveness of your applications security program.
