Summary
A Software Product Security role (often called
Product Security Engineer
or
ProdSec
) is the bridge between traditional cybersecurity and software engineering. Unlike IT security, which focuses on protecting the company's internal network, Product Security focuses on ensuring the software the company
*sells or provides*
is resilient against attacks.

Detailed Description

The Product Security Engineer works directly with DevOps and Engineering teams to bake security into the
Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC)
. The goal is to move security "left"—finding and fixing vulnerabilities during the design and coding phases rather than after the product has launched.

Knowledge/Skills/Competencies




Developer Training:
Creating "Security Champions" programs to teach engineers how to write defensive code.
- Secure Design & Threat Modeling: Reviewing new features before a single line of code is written. You’ll identify potential attack vectors and suggest mitigations.
- Vulnerability Management: Triaging bugs found via automated scanners, internal audits, or Bug Bounty programs.
- Security Tooling: Implementing and managing tools like SAST (Static Analysis), DAST (Dynamic Analysis), and SCA (Software Composition Analysis) to catch insecure dependencies.
- Code Reviews: Performing manual "deep dives" into critical codebases to spot logic flaws that automated tools might miss.
- Incident Response: Acting as a subject matter expert when a security flaw is exploited in production.
- Internal Red Teaming: Lead activities to find ways to bypass the logic to alter "Recipe" files or production data.
