Session Name: It's Not Your Developers' Fault

The number of security incidents and data breaches are increasing. It feels like not a week goes by without hearing of another breach or compromise. Are we getting worse at doing security? In this talk, Edwin will provide his opinion on this, from an application security perspective, by taking a look at how software development has changed over the years. As we move towards Cloud Native workloads, staying secure is harder, and it is not always the developers' fault.
