The Application Security Podcast

Alex Olsen -- Security champions, empowering developers, and AppSec training

Chris Romeo and Robert Hurlbut

Alex leads the Cyber Security Consulting Group, part of Rakuten's Cyber Security Defense Department. The group's dedication is to providing global security services, including security architecture, DevSecOps tooling and integration services, delivery of technical training, and running Rakuten's Security Champion community. His focus is on empowering teams to improve security throughout the development lifecycle.

Alex joins us to discuss security champions, a topic near and dear to our hearts. We get into democratizing appsec, the value of security governance and empowerment activities for security champions and the organization, how scope, cost and effort fit, and the ROI of training and security champions. We hope you enjoy this conversation with...Alex Olsen.
