Shift-Left Security and Code Scanning with Amjad Afanah and Sudipta Mukherjee

Traditionally, security checks and testing are performed towards the end of the software development lifecycle. However, discovering vulnerabilities at that stage can be costly and time-consuming.

This observation has led to the shift-left movement, which advocates for implementing security testing earlier in the software development process.
