I’ve been getting a lot of “do you have something I can send my manager?” requests lately. So… I made a proper training brochure!
Clear outcomes, realistic expectations, and no fear-based nonsense.

Important question for software developers: what do you wish you knew more about in regard to creating more secure software? If you could suddenly know something, like Neo in the matrix, what would it be?

I will see if I can help.

I updated my training page and made a real brochure instead of “here’s a slide deck and blah” 😅

I need to give an official name to something we are all talking about right now: Security drift.

Security drift is when software continues to work, but slowly becomes less secure over time, without anyone intentionally making it that way.
