Design and implement continuous application security testing mechanisms to aid in assessing our security posture and furthermore, drive down the number of vulnerabilities and threats in our environment. Inform, support and empower our software engineers to strive towards becoming more vigilant, aware and capable secure coding practitioners. This includes developing structured and unstructured engagements such as, targeted and general training, one-on-one and one-to-many coaching/information sharing sessions and general enquiry handling around application security.
