FEATURED SPEAKER
Experience a critical session with Srinivas Karthick as he details how to secure APIs as the new perimeter in the DevSecOps pipeline.
As applications become API-driven, the traditional network boundary dissolves. APIs are now the entry points to critical services, making them prime attacker targets. Securing this new perimeter demands a mindset shift: API security must be woven into DevSecOps from design to deployment. Discover how leading teams tackle API threats, embedding security controls into CI/CD workflows, ensuring innovation doesn't outpace protection.
