Listen "Developer Awareness Training and AI Assisted Tooling for Improving Security - Chris Lindsey"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of The Security Repo Podcast, we take a look at the role developer training and awareness have in improving security.
We are joined by Chris Lindsey, Application Security Evangelist at Mend.io. He is a seasoned speaker who has appeared at conferences, webinars, and private events. Chris draws on expertise from more than 15 years of direct security experience leading and building security programs and over 35 years of experience leading teams in programming software, solutions, and security architecture.
We start with how training and awareness are the start of the process but not all that is needed. From there, we discuss developer tooling vs security tooling and what gaps exist. By the end, we get into AI and how to think about a future with auto-remediation.
