Every organization is asking developers to work harder, do more with less and ship applications faster. But with modern, cloud-native environments, complexity and security can get in the way. The question becomes, how can the AppSec and platform engineering teams work together more effectively to make this a reality? There are a number of ways to help both AppSec and platform engineering teams collaborate more effectively, reduce their cognitive load (or overload!) and increase velocity and productivity.

In this Techstrong Learning Experience, Joe Pelletier of Fairwinds and Dean Agron of Oxeye speak with Kendall Miller to discuss why AppSec and platform engineering teams need to align on business goals and how they can combine best practices to speed development velocity.

You'll learn:

  • Why AppSec and platform engineering matters
  • Key trends for both teams
  • How increased cognitive load slows velocity
  • Best practices for integrating security into a larger developer platform vision
