1. Learn a new approach to securing software development

With over 4 different tracks, SnykCon will introduce best practices and technologies for integrating development and security teams, tools, and processes.

Key themes will be discussed, including shifting leftto address security as early as possible; empowering developers to act on security issues, mitigating cloud nativeapplication risk when writing code and at runtime, and overall vulnerability management in the SDLC, from detecting, prioritizing, fixing, and preventing software vulnerabilities.

Some of the tracks to expect?
