In today's digital landscape, ensuring the security of your applications is of paramount importance. AppSec, short for Application Security, involves safeguarding your software applications against potential threats and vulnerabilities. While implementing robust AppSec practices is crucial, effective leadership plays a vital role in setting up your business for AppSec success.

As we approach the second half of 2023, both security and development teams are seeing seismic shifts in the application security world. AI is powering a productivity revolution in development, enabling developers of all types (and even non-developers) to introduce code faster than ever. Meanwhile, it’s more difficult than ever for developers and AppSec professionals to identify and prioritize true risk to the business.

Security is an increasingly critical aspect of application development. As the volume of applications rapidly expands, so does the volume of source code, components, and dependencies used to create them. With them comes a growth in the potential attack surface and an escalation in the variety of threats to your application security.
