Century Club
Officially kick off SnykWeek: London and the day’s events.
Simon Maple, Field CTO at Snyk
Developers are increasingly responsible for the security of the applications they build. And with an ever-increasing number of vulnerabilities and attack vectors, understanding developer security fundamentals has never been more important. Learn why developers are shouldering more of the security burden and how they can rise to the challenge without reducing velocity.
Matt Jarvis, Director of DevRel at Snyk
Learn how attackers take advantage of seemingly innocuous code to wreak havoc, and how you can easily identify and remediate even the most complex security vulnerabilities with ease.
Brian Vermeer, Senior Developer Advocate at Snyk
Sitting around talking about security is boring: let’s hack. Join us for an hour of live fixing where we’ll sprint to fix as many open source security issues as possible and compete to win the title of Best Hacker in London.
