"You build it, you own it" pushed accountability for security into the hands of the teams who write the code. Auto-remediation tools now promise to close that loop faster than any human team can: scanning, patching, opening PRs, sometimes merging without a developer ever seeing the diff. The question this debate puts on the table is whether that promise quietly guts the principle it claims to serve.
This session pits experienced practitioners in both positions challenging each position directly, with a focus on where the line sits between assistive automation and abdicated accountability, and what AppSec teams should demand from vendors before treating "auto" as a synonym for "handled."
This new format aims to involve the audience in a spirited discussion around important industry topics.
