Introduction
Build security into the way your team ships—turn guardrails, automation, and shift-left practices into the invisible engine of safe, fast delivery.
We'll cover the following...
Staff+ means you make the secure path the fast path: paved roads, guardrails, and boring audits.
When you can look a PM and an exec in the eye and say, “Yes, we can ship this on Friday—and here’s how we won’t end up in the news,” you stop being “a good coder” and start being the person who unblocks the roadmap.
John, of course, is the company’s incident response plan—every alert ends the same way: “Has anyone tried calling John?” You’ll build systems that don’t need that call.
To get you there, here’s what we’ll cover:
Threat modeling
AuthN, AuthZ, and least privilege
Secure code and supply chain
Privacy and PII
Each lesson also covers how to find and fix issues early with a Shift-Left mindset, a DevOps term for the practice of moving tasks, especially testing and security, earlier in the development timeline.
Throughout the module, we will revisit an example: a “Customer Data Export” feature.
