  • Speakers: Alfred Chung, Eric Johnson, Colin Domoney, Apoorva Phadke

Agile and DevOps development life cycles are making it possible for developers to serve up applications faster than ever. Given the rapidly increasing number of application deployments to the cloud and mobile devices, application security managers have more to defend 'and less time to mount their defenses'than ever before.

SANS conducted a survey of IT and development professionals to learn how security teams are keeping up with the fast-paced deployment cycles in these new and challenging environments. Webcast attendees will learn about survey results as we explore:

  • Rapid delivery cycles in Agile and DevOps and how they affect security and compliance
  • Tools and techniques that are most effective in securing apps 'and why
  • Effects of containerization (such as through Docker) on security and risk assessments of applications
  • Who's bridging the gaps between InfoSec, software engineering and compliance and whether such actions improve the security of applications

The second part of the webcast, held on Wednesday, October 25, at 1 p.m. Eastern, drills down to the threats, how they spread, and what to do about them. Click here to register for the Part 2 webcast.
