FEATURE: PROACTIVE SECURITY
Why the next CIO agenda is developercentric
A developer-centric CIO agenda fundamentally reshapes enterprise security by shifting focus from a traditional, perimeter-based model to one where security is embedded directly into the development process. Christopher Davey, Vice President & General Manager – APIM Software BU at WSO2, explores how this new approach recognises that empowering developers with autonomy and the right tools is essential for speed and innovation. He goes on to discuss how WSO2 helps ensure internal developer platforms are built with security-by-design principles, making security an enabler rather than a hindrance.

How does the shift to a developercentric CIO agenda reshape enterprise security and what new security models are essential to support this change?
The modern enterprise is focused on speed and innovation and developers are at the centre of it. APIs have become key in connecting internal systems, cloud services and external partners.
A developer-centric CIO agenda recognises that empowering developers with the right tools, platforms and autonomy is the fastest way to deliver business value, drive transformation and maintain competitiveness. In a developer-centric model, security must be embedded directly into development processes through API-first security patterns, Zero Trust architectures and automated policy enforcement.
