The background to the topic, why is it something that interests you? How do you convince developers to take your course? 2. What do you think the root cause of the gap is? 3. Who is causing the gaps? (‘go fast’ culture, overzealous security, GRC requirements, basically everyone?) 4. Where do gaps begin? Is it the ‘need’ to ‘move fast’? 5. What can devs do to involve security in their process? Sprint planning? SCA tools? 6. How have you seen this go wrong at organizations? 7. How important is it to have security early in the product development process? 8. What sort of challenges do you think mainstream security people face in AppSec scenarios? 9. How does Product Security differ from Application Security? (what if the product is an application?) 10. What are the key development concepts that security people need to be familiar with to effectively get involved in AppSec/ProdSec? 11.. How do you suggest a security team approach AppSec/ProdSec?                Leadership buy-in                Effective/valuable processes                Tools should achieve a goal 12.

Join Mary and I as we discuss the functions of a board, messaging to various levels of leadership and teams, and what it takes to make that leap to being a CISO. And when you're done, and you need someone to help your org get more mature, contact the team at GoldiKnox. #cybersecurity #informationsecurity #ciso #leadership #GRC   Questions and topics: https://hbr.org/2023/05/boards-are-having-the-wrong-conversations-about-cybersecurity “Just 69% of responding board members see eye-to-eye with their chief information security officers (CISOs). Fewer than half (47%) of members serve on boards that interact with their CISOs regularly, and almost a third of them only see their CISOs at board presentations. “ They obviously have different priorities, so what brings everyone to the table to discuss? Are they even worried about security? Tactical goals vs. org goals and aligning them What are boards most worried about these days?  Staying relevant in the face of AI? What tech will protext them from the newest threats? GRC is forced security, security is completely optional, Compliance requires some sort of security   Additional information / pertinent LInks (Would you like to know more?): Research organizations (gartner, forrester, etc) https://goldiknox.com/  https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/board-needs-help-planning-cybersecurity-start-here-daniel-briley-k7xzc https://hbr.org/2022/11/is-your-board-prepared-for-new-cybersecurity-regulations https://www.justice.gov/usao-ndca/pr/former-chief-security-officer-uber-sentenced-three-years-probation-covering-data   Show points of Contact: Amanda Berlin: @infosystir @hackershealth  Brian Boettcher: @boettcherpwned Bryan Brake: https://linkedin.com/in/brakeb  Brakesec Website: https://www.brakeingsecurity.com Youtube channel: https://youtube.com/@brakeseced Twitch Channel: https://twitch.tv/brakesec Discord: https://discord.gg/brakesec
