"Because of this massive shift, the pressure on business owners has never been higher. Consumers today have zero patience. If your mobile application is slow, or if your website lacks the features they want, they will instantly move to a competitor. To survive and grow, a modern business must be able to create and update its digital tools incredibly fast. However, rushing to build technology introduces a terrible risk: you might accidentally leave your digital doors wide open to criminals."
"Imagine a factory where the people who design the cars never speak to the people who actually put the engines together. That is how the tech world used to work. One group of people (the developers) would spend months writing computer code in a quiet room. When they finally finished, they handed the code over to a completely different group of people (the operations team) whose job was to put that code on the internet."
Every company now functions as a technology company; customers find businesses online, buy via digital platforms, and expect services 24/7. This shift creates intense pressure because consumers have little patience and will quickly switch to competitors if apps are slow or sites lack features. Companies therefore need to build and update digital tools extremely rapidly. Rushing development, however, increases the risk of introducing security vulnerabilities that expose customer data. Historically, separate development and operations teams caused slow, error‑prone releases, breakages, and extended fixes. Leaders must balance rapid delivery with robust security practices to protect users.
