The AppSec Tug-of-War: Whose Responsibility is it?

This IDC Market Note discusses AppSec and the key themes and takeaways from IDC's CISO Summit 2022.

"Application security is now firmly on the radar of software development and delivery teams, but there is an urgent need to move security from predominantly being seen as a non-functional to functional requirement so that it gets more visibility, attention, and understanding from developers. Ultimately, AppSec is a collective responsibility, and security considerations must be embedded right at the design point of the application development cycle," said Jennifer Thomson, AVP, European Cloud Innovation and Services.
