Follow Friday: Security Edition (10 June 2022)

Happy Friday, friends! 🎉 Follow Friday is your weekly opportunity to shout out fellow DEV Community members doing awesome work. Check out the comments and follow someone new!

Ahh, security — every developer’s favorite afterthought. 🔐💭

Just kidding!! The truth is, securing software is under-appreciated and extremely important. From navigating secure sign-on methods to avoiding the worst case scenario, we love security-focused devs because…well, we’d be screwed without them. 😅

Formatting tip: to populate a card with a follow button, use the liquid tag syntax {% embed https://... %} and insert the URL of your favorite author's profile.

Join in on the #FollowFriday fun by @mentioning your favorite author to follow for security tips (and letting us know why you love their posts!) ⤵️
