Truly Shifting Left means embracing a clean-as-you-go approach to software development. It means exactly what you'd think — it enables developers to identify and fix errors in real-time as they create code. When developers are able to clean-as-they-code, they move the security process as early into the software development life cycle (SDLC) as possible — when the code is first being written. You can't shift further left than that ...
