In this episode we focus on Software Engineering. The AI hosts analyze my article, Shift Left Security, Security Unit Tests, OWASP Top 10, and AI: Key Practices for Secure Development. The aim is to promote "shift left" security by integrating security testing early in the software development process. This involves writing security unit tests to tackle vulnerabilities highlighted in the OWASP Top 10, with examples provided in Java and JavaScript in the article. We explore the potential of AI to enhance security testing, including identifying vulnerabilities and improving the efficiency of static and dynamic analysis. Ultimately, the conversation promotes a proactive approach to security, combining established best practices with emerging technologies.
