Discussing Elixir Code Security with Filipe Cabaco
Filipe Cabaco, an Elixir Software Developer at Supabase, discusses Elixir code security on the Elixir Mix podcast with hosts Allen Wyma and Sascha Wolf. He elaborates on his experience and the thought process that led him to write an article titled 'Elixir Code Security: Prioritize Security in Your CI With 4 Tools'. Filipe emphasizes the importance of preventing security incidents that are usually a result of either neglect or lack of awareness. He points out that many security breaches are preventable and encourages developers to familiarize themselves with Elixir-specific security tools like Credo and Sobelow. The discussion also touches on the security features inherent to the Elixir language and the BEAM virtual machine, as well as the overall security of Elixir compared to other languages. The speakers reflect on the need for a proactive approach to security and incorporating it into the continuous integration (CI) processes.
