How to Make a Developer Love Security

SANS Security Awareness Summit 2022
Speaker:
Sophia Adhami, Business Executive to CRO & CISO, Sage
Mads Howard, Global Information Security Coordinator, Sage
Are you being asked to influence security culture amongst your technical colleagues? Do you sometimes feel out of your depth? What if you could deliver measurable risk reduction in the development of your software and digital services via technical security champions? If you are an organization which depends on its software to carry out its core function, engagement with technical colleagues who build and maintain this software is essential. During this talk we will give an overview of how Sage has developed a network of security champions in a varied technical environment. The key takeaways from the talk will be how to use persona interviews to understand your technical ecosystem and colleagues, the tools and techniques you can then apply to engage with this unique community of colleagues and finally, the metrics you can measure to demonstrate impact and risk reduction. Along the way we will share our lessons learned to help you effectively use these colleagues' expertise and knowledge to identify and mitigate risks to ensure you deliver more secure and reliable digital products and services.
