Listen "Security vs. Developer Velocity: The False Dichotomy"

Episode Synopsis

In this episode, we debunk the myth that security and developer velocity are inherently at odds. Dapo & I explore how organizations can implement security measures that enhance rather than hinder development speed, examining modern DevSecOps practices, shift-left security approaches, and automation tools that integrate seamlessly into development workflows. "What if your security practices could make your developers move faster? The data shows companies with mature security integration deploy 3x more frequently with 80% fewer hotfixes." "The most innovative companies aren't choosing between security and speed—they're weaponizing security as their competitive advantage in getting to market faster."Learn practical strategies for building a security culture that accelerates innovation rather than blocking it, with real-world examples from companies that have successfully balanced these seemingly competing priorities.Host: Samuel Arogbonlo, Senior Site Reliability Engineer (IaaS & KaaS).
