InfosecGirls Session - 30th August, 2025
Topic: Secure defaults in platform engineering — golden paths, paved roads, and how security teams partner with internal developer platforms.
Summary
- Golden paths: opinionated templates with security baked in from day one.
- Paved roads vs guardrails: when to mandate controls vs guide adoption.
- Metrics platform teams care about: time-to-deploy, rollback safety, and drift detection.
- Collaboration model: security as platform customers and co-designers, not gate-only.
