Jim Manico joins Chris, Matt, and Izar at the Security Table for a rousing discussion on his Threat Modeling journey. They also learn about each other's thoughts about DAST, SAST, SCA, Security in AI, and several other topics. Jim is an educator at heart, and you learn quickly that he loves application security. Jim is not afraid to drop a few controversial opinions and even a rap! Jim discusses the importance of static application security testing (SAST) and how it is becoming increasingly important in application security. He argues that SAST is a powerful tool for detecting vulnerabilities in software and that modern SAST tools can work at DevOps speed. He makes his case for why he believes SAST will be the ultimate security tool in the future. Jim also talks about the potential of AI in the field of software security, particularly in the area of auto-remediation for SAST findings. He believes that with good data and models, AI-powered remediation engines could revolutionize the industry. The episode also delves into threat modeling and its role in software development. The participants discuss the importance of identifying security issues early in the development process and the return on investment (ROI) of threat modeling. Jim emphasizes that threat modeling should focus on identifying issues that static analysis tools cannot easily detect, such as access control vulnerabilities.  They conclude with a discussion on the "shift left" movement in software security and its potential benefits and challenges.
