Listen "Quality Code, Safer World: Rethinking Security in Software Development with Jelle Niemantsverdriet"
Episode Synopsis
Jelle Niemantsverdriet joins us in this episode to discuss how the mindset around security is evolving, both from organisations and from professionals. My favourite takeaway is that security is on the same path as testing and becoming part of quality in software development.
