Security Champions: building security culture inside the team
Companies invest more and more in cybersecurity, yet security still tends to arrive late, when fixing costs up to 30 times more.
Who is the Security Champion
Someone from the team itself, in development, operations, testing or product, who becomes the link to the security group. Not the most experienced, the most motivated.
Why it works
- Security enters the architecture, not only the release.
- The Champion speaks the team’s language and asks “how do we do this securely” instead of “you can’t”.
- According to BSIMM16, 59% of the companies analyzed already have Champions.
Minimum commitment
About 4 hours per week is enough to start changing how the team thinks about security.
