Juggling the Elephants: Making AppSec a Continuous Program
summary
Presents a repeatable Continuous AppSec Model: build an application portfolio profiling that scores 500+ apps objectively (Excel or Archer questionnaires), use the score to drive a risk-based assessment strategy (SAST/DAST, manual code reviews, threat modeling), publish reference architectures and standard components (SiteMinder, .NET guidance) to auto-generate threat models, and automate pipelines with Jenkins to make security self-service. Model is tailorable, implemented at enterprises, maps to OWASP SAMM (addresses seven SAMM practices), and produces metrics that enable continuous improvement and faster, auditable releases.
