Shahar Man, Co-founder and CEO of Backslash Security, has joined the DEVOPSdigest Vendor Forum.

Man led agile and innovative product and R&D teams for over two decades and specializes in developer-oriented products and transitioning large-scale development groups to agile methodologies. His career path began at SAP at the beginning of the cross-industry shift into the cloud era, and his skills were later refined in his role as VP of product management and R&D at Aqua Security. Man had a leading role in an industry created around cloud-native infrastructure and security, but he observed that application security had largely been left behind. As a result, Backslash Security was born to usher AppSec into the cloud-native era.

Backslash is the first Cloud-Native Application Security solution for enterprise AppSec teams to provide unified security and business context to cloud-native code risk, coupled with automated threat modeling, code risk prioritization, and simplified remediation across applications and teams. With Backslash, AppSec teams can see and easily act upon the critical toxic code flows in their cloud-native applications; quickly prioritize code risks based on the relevant cloud context; and significantly cut MTTR (mean time to recovery) by enabling developers with the evidence they need to take ownership of the process. Backslash has been deployed across leading technology organizations and Fortune 100 companies.
