  • Observability & governance:
    wire security logs to SIEM, define AppSec KPIs (MTTR, SLA adherence, gate coverage), and report risk posture to engineering leadership.
  • Upskill teams:
    run secure coding workshops, build a "security champions" program, create playbooks/runbooks for common vulns and abuse cases.
