Evolution of Security Risk Assessment
This talk will focus on the evolution of how Microsoft’s Application Security team modernized their approach to conducting risk assessments from a very reactive and manual selection process to a collaborative and continuous risk-based selection method and driving adoption & behaviors through scorecards/dashboards.

She partners closely with compliance and privacy teams to manage security risk reduction across Microsoft’s Business Units.
