Description
Security teams are often known as police officers or the “team of no.” Instead, security teams help identify and manage risks--empowering the company to stay compliant and make secure products by saying “yes.” 
 
Gusto Chief Security Officer Fredrick “Flee” Lee explains what you can do at an early-stage company to demonstrate meaningful business value starting on day one, including making security a sell-able feature of your product. 
Learner Objectives
 Learners will understand how to avoid extra security procedures that may slow your company down as it scales; how to empower every employee to take responsibility for security and mitigating risk; and when to onboard new security hires, vendors and technology.
