CISO's and Engineering team clash in hyper growth startups
Summary
CISOs and engineering teams in hypergrowth startups often experience conflict due to the prioritization of rapid deployment over cybersecurity, highlighting the need for automated tools in data management and security.
Hyper growth startups and Data-Privacy
Have you ever wondered why CISOs and engineering teams often clash in hypergrowth startups? The CTO relentless pursuit of mean-time-to-ship, a cornerstone of engineering success, can sometimes collide with the CISO's goal to prioritize cybersecurity. And without automated tools, it's just a slippery slope.
Isn't it true that while there have been significant development in CI and CD the CS (continuous security) is still 100 miles behind?
While prioritizing rapid delivery CTOs are increasingly turning to automation tools for continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD). Fortunately, many popular developer tools like GitHub, Vercel, and Cloud Run now offer these capabilities. However, are there tools for Continuous Security for meeting the requirements of CISOs?
Additionally, what developer centric solutions are available for pen testing, data change management, data cataloging, and managing data flows?
This tension between CISO and Engineering teams often arises from the engineering team's focus on rapid change management, which can lead to neglecting critical data management practices like cataloging, discovery, and capturing data-flow, potentially exposing the organization to significant risks. And hence the clash-of-clans.
