The Director of Product Security at Snowflake, Jacob Salassi, shared his team's approach to establishing a successful application security program by starting with empathy towards developers, establishing a feedback loop, focusing on engineering excellence, driving accountability, creating focused training, and curating the entire security experience. The Snowflake team partnered with Snyk to leverage developer-first tooling, first- and third-party code remediation, seamless integration, detection for vulnerabilities in base image dependencies & Dockerfile commands, among other tools, to support their application security initiatives.
