What your week looks like today.

Security budget is 6 vendors and growing. Finance is asking why.

AppSec lead is asking for headcount to operate the existing stack — instead of replacing it.

Compliance pressure is up; engineering velocity is down. Audit prep ate two sprints.

Customer security questionnaires are eating sales engineering. Deals slip on questionnaires, not features.

AI features are launching faster than security can review. You're carrying the personal risk.

Board asks: are we exposed to supply chain risk? You don't have a clean answer.
