- What: Maccherone’s session “A Transformation Blueprint for Developer-First Security” will showcase how to achieve a cultural transformation where empowered engineering teams play a bigger role in securing the products they are developing. Attendees will learn about the challenges they will face if they attempt to shift left and make fundamental changes to mindset, terminology, tools, metrics, roles, and practices without proper consideration of modern development.
- When: 10:15- 11:15 a.m. ET, Thursday, October 6, 2022
