Trust me, we're doing devsecops
Patrick Debois at All The Talks 2020 - Security
Many of the Dev*Ops talks revolve around tools and culture. There are some good, fascinating talks all shouting: “All for the great (business) good!” Yet, they rarely address topics at the interpersonal, relationship level. Pipelines and automation increases our confidence in the process, but does it increase our trust in people? Are we really asking the right questions when we adopt a new tool or do yet another company transformation?
• We start the talk by looking into different models of trust (the currency of trust, faith vs trust, trust vs beliefs...)
• Translate them to day-to-day activities in organisations (reviewing a pull request, security audits, the backlog graveyard, full stack development...)
• How trends like DevOps and DevSecOps relate to trust and confidence (autonomous teams, you build it you run it, hiring for remote...)
• As an extra bonus we will hold a mirror to ourselves while exploring how we trust tools (how we pick an OSS library, select a SaaS solution, the Ikea Effect, chaos engineering...)
• Finally we validate how we can make ourselves more trustworthy (borrowing from Promise Theory)
I have no psychology degree, but given my grey hair and lots of stories from the trenches, I hope you can trust me enough to give you an entertaining and thoughtful talk.

In order to understand current IT organizations, Patrick has taken a habit of changing both his consultancy role and the domain which he works in: sometimes as a developer, manager, sysadmin, tester and even as the customer. Today Patrick is a Director of Dev ❤️Ops Relations and Advisor at Snyk. He is also a co-author of "The DevOps Handbook: How to Create World-Class Agility, Reliability, and Security in Technology Organizations" with Gene Kim, John Willis, and Jez Humble. He first presented concepts on Agile Infrastructure at Agile 2008 in Toronto, and in 2009 he organised the first DevOpsDays. Since then he has been promoting the notion of ‘devops’ to exchange ideas between these groups and show how they can help each other to achieve better results in business.
