In this episode of ScaleToZero Podcast, we sit down with a Product Security Engineer to discuss the delicate balance between robust security, user experience, and developer velocity.

From identifying red flags in security reviews to using AI for point-in-time vulnerability assessments, we cover the tactical moves that early security teams need to make today.

The landscape is shifting from "Security vs. Engineering" to "Security + Engineering." If you're an early security team looking to leverage AI to punch above your weight class, this episode is a must-listen.
