If you've ever found yourself frustrated watching deadlines slip by as your development team waits on yet another security review, you're not alone. In today's competitive landscape, companies are caught in a difficult balancing act: move quickly to deliver the features customers want, or slow down to ensure those features don't introduce vulnerabilities that could lead to the next headline-making breach.


Security reviews have become the speed bump on the road to innovation that everyone acknowledges is necessary, but few have figured out how to navigate efficiently. Development teams push for velocity while security teams pull the emergency brake, creating tension that reverberates throughout organizations.

Today, we're joined by Dimitri Shvartsman, co-founder of Prime Security and prior Head of Cybersecurity at PayPal, to discuss how enterprise organizations are innovating security solutions to reduce the time to feature delivery. We'll explore how AI tools can actually enable rather than impede innovation, and examine practical approaches to integrating AI security tools earlier in the development lifecycle.

Whether you're a CISO trying to balance security with business needs, a developer tired of security roadblocks, or a product leader navigating these competing priorities, this conversation will give you actionable insights to transform security from a bottleneck into a business enabler.
