Application security teams face an impossible task: securing ever-growing codebases, pipelines, and technologies with limited resources. Security Champions offer a scalable, sustainable way to extend security reach—by embedding security-aware developers directly into engineering teams. In this session, we’ll explore how Champions act as force multipliers for AppSec, strengthen team collaboration, and drive secure development practices from within. In this session, we will discuss • Common obstacles to secure development and misalignment between security and development • How Champions can bridge the gaps through ongoing collaboration • Key steps to building and sustaining a successful Champions program • Strategies to foster a collaborative, security-aware development culture
