Abstract

To developers, security frameworks often feel like top-down friction and annoying additional work. This talk tries to flip the script, showing how to transform OWASP SAMM activities from an audit checklist into an engineering enabler. We’ll explore the developer’s “What’s In It For Me?” and demonstrate how to pragmatically tailor SAMM activities to reduce rework, automate feedback, and seamlessly integrate security into daily dev workflows.
