One of the key features of cryptocurrency, NFTs, and other blockchain-based technologies is the immutable ledger. Put another way, there's no clear way to implement an 'undo' button when it comes to blockchain. In more traditional situations, passwords can be reset. Financial institutions can issue a stop payment order.

We have spent decades tackling security threats with technology, and we are failing badly. We need to look and learn from other industries and see how they have improved their industry. In particular the airline safety and automobile safety industries have a lot that we can learn from. Things such as breach disclosures, accountability, root cause analysis with openly shared results, focused training, industry norms for checklists, certification of products, and regulations have all improved these industries.

Security is one of the most evolving and impactful landscapes in the regulatory sphere. Proposed initiatives in the areas of Incident Response, Software and Product Assurance, Coordinated Vulnerability Disclosure (CVD), and IoT or Connected Products Regulations are among the most active and developing areas of security policy around the world. This evolving landscape also serves as an opportunity for innovation and research collaboration. Elazari will walk us through some of the most recent trends in policy proposals shaping the future of security. We will also talk about bug bounties and vulnerability disclosure, what are some of the industry's best practices in this area, how to implement these programs to foster security, collaboration and transparency, and how this connects to the policy momentum and its impact on security researchers.

If you attempt to shift security left without adaptation, it'll feel a lot more like S#!T LEFT to the development teams but most security groups lack the mindset and skills to do it in a way that works well with modern development approaches and tools but directly focuses on gradual methodical practice and culture change. Larry Maccherone led the Dev(Sec)Ops transformation program in the highly diverse environment at Comcast using Agile and Digital Transformation approaches. Teams that onboarded to the program had 1/7th as many vulnerabilities and incidents in production -- a result so compelling that security leadership allowed it to scale to all 600 development teams. Along the way, Larry learned some critical lessons on how to provide a gradual onramp to empowering teams to be worthy of being trusted with the security of the products they were developing.
