SE Radio 684: Dan Bergh Johnsson and Daniel Deogun on Secure By Design

Author: team@se-radio.net (SE-Radio Team) September 4, 2025 Duration: 56:43

Daniel Deogun and Dan Bergh Johnsson -- two of the co-authors of the book, Secure by Design -- discuss the intersection of good software design and security with host Sam Taggart. They describe how following certain software design principles can help developers create secure software without needing to become security experts. They talked about how this is the continuation of developers taking on more responsibilities: Agile asked developers to become responsible for testing their code. DevOps asked developers to work together with operations in deploying their code. Secure by Design asks developers to incorporate security into their designs.
