There's no shortcut that can replace time being explicitly dedicated to security from the very beginning of an app's development.

To explain why allocating time to secure an application is so important, you must understand the undeniable value of moving security to the "Left."

The security team may want to pull security farther left on the timeline, but that would require the product development group to also want to play ball.

Fixing these issues will steal time from work on future features and the blame-whether people admit or not-will fall mostly on the security team.

I wish making security a priority was as simple as putting a "Remember security!" Post-It note on the screen of everyone working on a project.

True respect for security requires an explicit time allocation.
