The cybersecurity adversaries embrace the concept of "shift left," so shouldn't the defenders? Shivajee Samdarshi of Venafi discusses the implications and mindset change for software development and engineering teams.

In a video interview with Information Security Media Group as part of ISMG’s RSA Conference 2021 coverage, Samdarshi discusses:

  • How threat actors have embraced "shift left";
  • What this means in the development context;
  • How the roles of InfoSec professionals may also change.

Samdarshi is the vice president of engineering at Venafi and leads the research and development effort for all of Venafi's products. He has over 25 years of experience in developing mission-critical software that is currently being used by some of the world’s leading companies in finance, transportation, healthcare and more. Prior to Venafi, he was the senior vice president of engineering at WhiteHat Security and vice president of engineering at TIBCO Software.
