Our expert knows that even trends such as serverless can benefit from an open source state of mind. And all this is based on one thing: the culture of sharing.

Stanislav Sivak has held several positions in the IT-security in the last 10 years: starting as a developer, continuing as Linux/database security administrator, however spending most time as a consultant, working for the BIG 4, a small German-based company and he currently focuses on everything around the secure software development lifecycle.
