AppSecCon 2023 is Now On Demand

In 2011, Marc Andreessen famously told the Wall Street Journal that “software is eating the world.” Today, that has never been more true: Every company is a software company to some extent, as organizations realize that they are increasingly dependent on software to drive digital business transformation. To thrive in a digital world, they must look, think and act like software companies themselves.

In this drive to succeed, though, one element is often forgotten: Security.

As the pace of application development accelerates and organizations find ever-faster ways to speed up the software development life cycle, security is still considered an afterthought or bolted on at the end of the application development process.

Mature application security (AppSec) programs are essential to protecting software in today’s dynamic environment, but the journey to AppSec maturity is beset with challenges, especially in the face of economic headwinds and tightening cybersecurity budgets.‍ To help guide security professionals and their AppSec programs on the path to success, the Purple Book Community has embarked on a new global initiative: The Scalable Software Security Maturity Model (S3M2).

On June 28 and 29, 2023, the Purple Book Community and ArmorCode held their AppSecCon 2023 virtual event, the world’s leading virtual AppSec conference. With more than 20 sessions and more than 40 speakers delivering keynotes and informational sessions, AppSecCon helped more than 2,500 registrants learn more about S3M2 and AppSec strategies and best practices and offered attendees the opportunity to gain up to 12 Continuing Professional Education (CPE) credits. And you can still benefit from the knowledge and information shared at this event. AppSecCon 2023 is now available on demand. In addition, The Purple Book Community is holding ongoing workshops around the country; you can access more information about those workshops here.

You can register here to explore software security’s top challenges, best practices and case studies with trusted leaders. Engage in dialogue and workshops to help you on your journey to AppSec maturity. Join distinguished Purple Book Community members and guests for this global virtual event illuminating key issues at the forefront of software security—and how to solve them.
