Global AppSec - Beyond Boundaries

Explore the concept of "global AppSec" in this thought-provoking keynote address from OWASP Global AppSec DC 2023. Delve into the challenges and realities of application security on a global scale, questioning assumptions about the universality of security solutions, technologies, and processes. Examine the diverse landscape of code creation, considering who writes code, where it's written, and whose lives depend on the software we aim to secure. Investigate whether most coders have access to essential security tools and if the majority of code is developed within established AppSec programs. Join Brook S.E. Schoenfield, an experienced author and AppSec iconoclast, as he critically analyzes the strengths and potential areas for improvement in the field. Consider how the AppSec community might need to expand its influence to address current circumstances and future shifts in the industry. Gain valuable insights from Schoenfield's extensive experience as a CTO, Chief Software Security Strategist, and author of multiple books on software security and threat modeling.
