Change is Hard - Securing the Future Today
summary
Argues security is a socio-technical problem and the practical path is building a shared platform that balances innovation and efficiency — the scope economy — not policing teams. Recommends continuous, automated policy enforcement and pre-audited libraries so development teams can focus on business logic; cites Borg/Kubernetes and SRE principles as blueprints. Proposes measuring security level objectives and moving toward cryptographic identity and continuous verification instead of theatrical inspection. Change is slow but solvable.
