Organisations today are facing mounting pressure to stay ahead of costly attacks and protect sensitive data while still delivering digital channels that drive revenue and increase engagement.

Given the threat surface that applications expose, balancing the need for novel customer experiences with robustly securing the web and mobile applications and their underlying APIs can be a struggle for even the most technologically savvy enterprises

In this webinar, we’ll cover best practices for delivering secure digital experiences in ways that bolster your business objectives.

Recognising and bridging the language culture barrier in integrating AppSec to your DevOps teams
Defining the role, responsibilities and accountabilities of your Security Champions in DevOps
How to integrate application protection into existing DevOps processes
