Veracode CISO Sohail Iqbal provides guidance on prioritizing software security and effectively communicating metrics to board members.

Amid the shifting threat landscape, cloud migration and ongoing digital transformation, software security is often low on a security leader's list of priorities.

But Biden's Executive Order and continuing high-profile breaches have increased awareness around cybersecurity - especially for software - among the members of the board at organizations, making it important for security leaders to communicate to them about the organization’s risk posture.

However, software security solutions differ from other security solutions: You don’t install a tool; you have to build security from the start.

In this session, led by Sohail Iqbal, CISO at Veracode, you will learn:

  • How to approach the software security challenge, and where it should be among security leaders' priorities
  • How to make the successful business case for a software security program
  • With a program in place, how to ensure your developers are following your standards
  • How to measure the success of your program
  • How to communicate the metrics to your board and senior management.

Here is the course outline:
