Purple Book Podcast

In an increasingly digital world that we live in, building secure software is important for us all. Just as personal safety and security are fundamental needs, we at the Purple Book Community believe digital security is a fundamental need as well. Welcome to The Purple Book Podcast. This podcast is part of the Purple Book Community, a community of some of the world’s leading security leaders. Our vision is to build a purpose driven, trusted, and safe community that equips people with the expertise to embrace secure development practices, connect with other practitioners to solve the ever-evolving challenges, and ultimately democratize software security.In this podcast we host thought leaders and security practitioners to tackle the monumental challenge of building secure software and making the digital world safer and more secure.Our goal is to bring informative and insightful discussions about securing software, sharing challenges in doing so, and promoting best practices that will inspire you to take action.Members of the Purple Book Community host the podcast, more than 30 practitioners who truly understand the ins and outs of DevOps and have been on the frontlines of this digital challenge. They are made up of the best chief information security officers and software developers from all the leading organizations and companies right now.

Some conversations may only have two people diving deep into a complex topic, while others may highlight an entire group immersed in an in-depth collaboration and brainstorming. With this unique delivery that does not stick to a single format, listeners could treat themselves to a wide variety of data presentation and strategy building.Ultimately, The Purple Book Podcast aims to build a vibrant free resource community around it, connecting practitioners and thought leaders. More practical solutions would be developed by creating awareness about heightening software security and ushering a collective work for it.With the advent of Agile development methodologies and DevOps, the pace of software development has accelerated dramatically, going from once a year release to releases every month, week or even hourly in some cases. This certainly has made it more challenging to secure that software.So, leaders from the Purple Book Community are also writing a “Purple book of Software Security”.
