As software supply chain attacks grow increasingly complex and hostile, many organizations are looking to automated security tools to outpace threats to their data, money, and reputations. These tools promise to detect vulnerabilities at scale before humans know they exist, but many engineers remain skeptical. Can automated tools ever be as reliable as experienced security experts, or do they only introduce more complexity for already overstretched teams?

The constant stream of alerts and false positives generated by automated security detection can hinder productivity, increase developer friction, and risk desensitizing engineers to genuine threats. At the same time, automated tools also lack the context and judgment experienced security professionals bring to the table, and when mismanaged, shift bottlenecks rather than removing them.

In this webinar, our panel of experts show you where and how they’ve used automation to strengthen security posture, the areas where human oversight remains irreplaceable, and strategies for managing data overload and skeptical teams.

Key takeaways:

  • How to enhance security without adding developer friction
  • Which security measures can be automated – and where human oversight and intuition remain vital
  • What to look for when evaluating and adopting automated security solutions
