You are correct. Especially at big companies, programmers program and security is just some rules dropped on them from above.

You might be playing the long game. I think a CTO might benefit from knowing both app dev and security.

Thanks! Yeah, articles like this I would have studies in greater detail in the past but this year I realize In need to improve my leetcode/algo times so long term I'll keep focused on security and important topics. But in the meantime ... time to zig-zag a binary tree :(
At my company the head of security is also the chief programmer. Not sure if that's a good thing but he's got 30 years experience and likes to tell war stories.
