Recently, my colleagues and I attended an afterwork event where we had a lively discussion on who should take ownership of identifying security requirements within a cross-functional and agile team. The consensus was that it's not one person's job but rather a collective effort! Here's why:
šÆ Everyone brings unique perspectives based on their professional background, education, and expertise. By leveraging these diverse viewpoints, teams can uncover security issues more effectively than if left solely to specialists.
šµļøāāļø An inclusive approach ensures that each member understands how security fits into product development. This helps prevent blind spots caused by siloed responsibilities, making everyone a proactive defender against threats.
š To make this system work smoothly, clear communication protocols are necessary to report identified concerns and proposed mitigations across disciplines. Encouraging openness removes stigma around raising security questions without fear of being judged as less competent.
