Most security incidents don't start with a sophisticated attack. They begin with an ordinary engineering decision: a secret committed “just for now”, a dependency nobody reviewed, an endpoint that trusted its caller, a payment webhook nobody verified. Drawing on experience building a platform that handles tickets, payments, and personal data, this session walks through seven areas where everyday development work creates risk and the 24 habits that close those gaps. Each habit is grounded in a real “what went wrong” moment and can be adopted without a new tool, a new budget, or a new department.
