A Conversation With Leif Dreizler About Security Engineering at Segment

So today I’m talking to Leif Dreizler. Leif is a buddy of mine who also works in San Francisco. He’s a developer at a company called Segment, and over the last year or so he’s been telling me about all kinds of cool stuff he’s been working on, how his team is set up, and how they see security teams being built in the future.
