Following Mergers and Acquisitions, while your business certainly grows, so does your risk of security issues. Critical assets change hands, different applications have to be integrated, and all as fast as possible, so security inevitably slips through the cracks.

But how do you avoid this and meet your targets?

Join our next webinar on the 6th of February as a panel of experts - Chris Lindsey (Application Security Evangelist at Mend.io), Curtis Koenig (Head of AppSec at Gen), and Izar Tarandach (Principal Security Architect at SiriusXM) - take you through exactly how to avoid the real-world security pitfalls companies fall into when merging brands, products and applications.

Our guest experts draw from a wealth of experience in both technical and leadership roles to explore everything from the technical aspects of data integration and security priorities to managing security culture across teams and mitigating long-term risks.
