Laura Bell is the founder and lead consultant for SafeStack, a security training, development, and consultancy firm.
Laura is a software developer and penetration tester specializing in the management of information and application security risk within start-up and agile organizations. Over the past decade she has held a range of security and development roles and experienced first-hand the challenges of developing performant, scalable and secure systems. Historically the security function of an organization has been separate from the technical innovators, however Laura educates clients and audiences that in modern business this no longer works. Developers and implementers want to be empowered to understand their own security risk and address it.
