Ever feel like the faster you develop, the harder it gets to stay secure?
You're not alone—and you're certainly not imagining things!
In this episode of Cyber After Hours—Security in the DevOps Era: Balancing Speed and Safety—Paul and Evan are joined by Josh Dixon for a lively discussion that starts with relatable confessions about battling imposter syndrome (yes, even cybersecurity pros feel it!), and moves swiftly into the heart of DevSecOps.
From sharing laughs about remote work challenges during the pandemic, to diving deep into why blending security with rapid development can feel like walking a tightrope, the trio explores why effective communication, celebrating small victories, and strong leadership support are crucial in keeping teams motivated and secure.
Josh offers practical insights on overcoming friction in application development, discusses how Infrastructure as Code (IaC) is shaking things up, and explains why smaller teams might just have the advantage when implementing strict security measures.
Together, they unpack the “shift-left” trend, emphasizing how culture, context, and the right tools can bridge the gap between developers and security teams.
Because, let's face it: security shouldn't slow innovation—it should enable it.
Whether you're knee-deep in DevOps or just curious about building safer, faster development pipelines, join us for this honest (and sometimes hilarious) exploration into balancing speed with security.
Tune in, grab your favorite drink, and enjoy the ride—because cybersecurity conversations should be human, engaging, and just a bit fun.
