Automation, Generative AI, Shift Left - the world of application security is evolving fast, and so are the conversations that shape it.
Welcome to The Security Champions Podcast, the go-to resource for insights from the front lines of application security. The podcast is cohosted by Michael Burch, Director of Application Security for Security Journey, and Dustin Lehr, the Director of AppSec Advocacy. Each month, one of them shares a candid conversation with security leaders, engineering voices, and software experts.
From championing secure development practices to navigating real-world challenges in modern SDLCs, this show explores how teams are scaling appsec, strategy and culture.
