of
you

4. and the whole world
went to hell

5. common misconcep$ons

6. it’s not my job
(that’s why we have a security team)

7. it’s impossible so why try

8. we’ve always done this…
nobody’s hacked us yet

9. we’re too li@le to fail
(at security)

10. agility increases risk

11. what is con$nuous security?

16. principles of con$nuous security

17. automated
autonomous
integrated
repeatable
scalable

18. automated
“the best technical people I know work
really hard to make themselves redundant”

19. Deployment
Provisioning
Tes$ng
Sta$c analysis
Vulnerability mgmt

20. autonomous
“no boMlenecks, breakdowns or ripples”

22. Skills
Authority
Accountability
every team

23. integrated
“bite-­‐sized security that works with every step
of your lifecycle”

25. Woven in to keep you going
Respected enough to stop you

26. repeatable
“security fails when it’s a special event”

27. Every story
Every sprint
Every developer
Every $me

28. Standard Security Stories

29. scalable
“more than just
a single team
experiment”

30. Business as usual

Controlled
Universal
Special

31. Case Study

32. Fast growing

Legacy code
Mul$ple languages

33. Requirements

34. Code review

35. Tes$ng

36. Deployment
Vulnerability checks
Infrastructure as code
On demand deployments

37. Collabora$on
Security guild
Chat ops
Hack events

38. Good stuff
speed of change
skill level increase
increased awareness
priority of legacy
use of security resource

39. Lessons learned
security guilds
tool cost
tool quality
approaches
training at scale

40. achieving con$nuous security

41. choose tools wisely
integra$ons with workflows, API, speed

42. easy to digest resources
keep your examples, templates and
reusable stuff as close to your developers
as possible

43. educate everyone
skills are the number one bo@leneck

44. give testers some love
test environments, clean test data and tools

45. no special treatment
legacy code needs security too

46. dev == test == prod
remove the differences to remove
deployment complexity

47. Ques$ons?
