Track: Agile and DevOps

DevOps has necessarily matured into DevSecOps, but there is a significant focus disparity with the Sec element. As the ‘middle child’ Sec is often over looked and under-resourced.

DevSecOps is a holistic approach and only achieves full performance potential when all elements are working in harmony- this can only be achieved if the elements are generally in balance. Typically, attention and resources are only reactively provided to the Sec element and are withdrawn after the issue passes. There are management processes and techniques that have been proven to raise the Sec element awareness and result in long-term stable attention and resources, resulting in the Sec element being able to make greater and broader impacts, and in improved overall DevSecOps team efficiency. Understand the difference between DevOps and DevSecOps, how best to manage the pivot from DevOps to DevSecOps, and the lessons learned/best practices in maturing your DevSecOps organization.

As a result, ventures were impacted in what they could feasibly invest in and startups were affected in their ability to hire and scale.

This session will share experience from working within the venture startup space and how project management tooling and expertise was prioritized as an approach to navigate through organizational changes, build strategy, and track project outcomes. This session will share how various frameworks such as Agile, Scrum, and Kanban were leveraged to organize cross-functional teams’ workstreams in an ever changing environment.
