Security is essential throughout the entire software development lifecycle, but striking the right balance requires navigating trade-offs. The prevailing approach emphasizes “shifting left” to prioritize proactive and preventative measures early in development. However, this doesn’t mean “shift-right” security activities – such as testing and monitoring in later stages – can be overlooked. So how do you achieve the right balance between the two? Are they inherently at odds, or can they work together to strengthen security?
