    #08 - 09 - CyberSec Games: CyberSec conversations on the table

    In a world dominated by screens, how do we reignite the joy of face-to-face interaction? In this episode, Cássio Pereira and Marcos Santos sit down with Devika Gibbs, co-founder of Cybersec Games, to explore the transformative power of physical games in cybersecurity training. Devika reveals how her passion for board games is reshaping the way teams learn and collaborate, proving that true connection happens in person, not behind a screen. Devika shares the origin story of Cybersec Games, sparked by a simple index card idea, and explains why physical interaction is essential for building trust within teams. You'll discover: The unique benefits of playing games in a physical setting versus digital platforms.How to overcome generational shifts towards screen reliance in team training.The surprising outcomes of using games to enhance empathy and communication in professional environments.Real-life applications and success stories from organizations that have embraced this innovative approach.The stakes are high: without understanding the value of physical interaction, organizations risk losing the essence of teamwork and collaboration. Devika emphasizes that investing in physical games not only fosters deeper connections but also leads to better training outcomes compared to traditional digital methods.This episode is essential listening for cybersecurity professionals, educators, and anyone interested in enhancing team dynamics through the power of play. Dive into the world of Cybersec Games and discover how bringing people together can transform the way we learn and grow in the digital age.

    #08 - 08 - DSOMM - DevSecOps Maturity Model

    How mature is your DevSecOps program, and how do you know what to improve next? In this episode, we talk with Timo Pagel, creator of DSOOM, the DevSecOps Maturity Model, about why organizations need structured guidance to build security into software development without turning maturity into a bureaucratic checkbox exercise. We explore why many companies delay maturity assessments until their development environment becomes difficult to control, how security evaluations should reflect each organization’s actual context, and why copying a generic framework rarely produces meaningful improvement. Timo also shares how DevSecOps maturity models must evolve as AI becomes part of everyday software development. As teams increasingly rely on AI-assisted coding, maturity models need to address new risks, practices, and responsibilities associated with AI-generated code. The conversation also covers a topic that maturity models often ignore: failure. Progress does not come from pretending every initiative worked perfectly. It comes from learning what failed, adapting the approach, and using those lessons to build stronger and more resilient engineering practices. A practical conversation about DevSecOps maturity, realistic assessments, AI-assisted development, organizational growth, and the value of learning from mistakes.

    #08 - 07 - From conflict to collaboration

    In this episode of the DevSecOps Podcast, we talk with Juliane Reimann about turning one of the most common tensions in software development into real collaboration: the relationship between agile teams and IT security. Although both sides want reliable and robust software, security checks are still often left until the end of the development lifecycle. The result is predictable: vulnerabilities are discovered too late, remediation becomes expensive, delivery pressure increases, and security is treated as a blocker instead of a partner. Based on her presentation, “From Conflict to Collaboration,” Juliane explains why security findings are often detected but not addressed quickly, what causes defensive reactions toward security tools and processes, and how early, continuous security integration can improve communication, ownership, and delivery. A practical conversation about breaking silos, reducing friction, and making security part of the development workflow from the beginning.

    #08 - 06 - Manipulating people for a good AppSec

    In this episode of the DevSecOps Podcast, we talk with Nariman Aga-Tagiyev about how behavioral science can help improve Application Security programs. Based on his presentation, “Keep It Between Us: Manipulating Humans for Better AppSec (Ethically),” we discuss motivation, skills, tips, habit formation, and how to transform security activities into sustainable behaviors within development teams. We also explore BJ Fogg's Behavioral Model, the Octalysis Framework, and the Habit Cycle in an Application Security context, including the risks of using gamification, pressure, or behavioral manipulation inappropriately.

    #08 - 05 - AI Explainability Score Card

    In this episode, we sit down with Michael Novack to talk about the AI Explainability Scorecard, a practical framework for evaluating whether AI explanations are actually useful, trustworthy, and actionable. Michael walks us through the SCORE framework, covering five key dimensions: Sound, Consistent, Optimize, Readable, and Easy. We discuss why “the AI gave an explanation” is not enough, how convincing explanations can still be misleading, and why teams need a structured way to measure explainability before trusting AI-driven decisions. From compliance and auditability to security, governance, and real-world accountability, this conversation explores what it takes to move AI explainability from vague promise to practical discipline.

    #08 - 04 - Auto remediation

    E se a correção de vulnerabilidades deixasse de ser um ticket esquecido no backlog e virasse um pull request pronto para revisar? Neste episódio do DevSecOps Podcast, falamos sobre Auto Remediation, a próxima grande virada em Application Security. Discutimos como a automação pode ajudar times a sair do ciclo infinito de findings, planilhas, prioridades falsas e “isso fica para depois”, trazendo correções sugeridas, contexto técnico e ações diretamente para o fluxo dos desenvolvedores. Mas calma: não é apertar um botão mágico e deixar a IA sair commitando como estagiário em sexta-feira à tarde. Falamos também sobre os riscos reais: correções inseguras, mudanças sem contexto, quebra de aplicação, falsa sensação de segurança, dependência excessiva de IA e a necessidade de revisão humana. Um episódio para quem está cansado de apenas encontrar vulnerabilidades e quer começar a discutir o que realmente importa: corrigir com velocidade, contexto e responsabilidade.
