## Description

TikTok's Global Security Organization (GSO) integrates AI into the engineering processes, helping catch security and compliance risks early—before they become expensive, slow, or customer-facing problems. In this session, we'll explore how GSO's AI-assisted security validation platform, SEVA, uses LLMs to continuously validate security controls across our SDLC, without slowing teams down. You'll learn how shifting security 'left' in the SDLC and taking care of vulnerability management early on in the process not only protects your products, but enables engineers to move faster.
