DeveloperWeek 2020

It’s estimated that blockchain technology companies can expect revenue to top $6 billion by 2020. But alongside this incredible growth, the impact of a security breach has dramatically increased as well. Smart contracts are custodians of more critical data and functions than ever before, tied to payments and potentially holding millions of dollars in digital currencies.

Companies tend to prioritize the quick delivery of working code, but a push for speed without the right process in place leaves them reactive and open to vulnerabilities. In this session, Quantstamp CEO Richard Ma will explain how teams can ensure a more secure workflow and avoid devastating hacks and the headlines that come with them by integrating security earlier in the development process.

Attendees will learn how to better equip developers with the tools they need to produce their best work, automate code review, and avoid damaging but easy to miss vulnerabilities. By implementing best practices and effective tactics, companies can avoid the expensive and reputational risk of having to retroactively fix problematic code and weaknesses later in the development cycle. Attendees will walk away with actionable steps they can take to ensure higher quality code, mitigate inevitable security risks, and get a step ahead of the competition.
