Security is what makes it possible to build and ship software with confidence. But in fast-moving engineering teams, it can drift into an afterthought—a final hurdle before launch rather than a voice at the table from day one. Varun Prusty, staff security engineer on Asana's security architecture team, believed it didn't have to work that way, so he built something to prove it.

The hardest part of a planning offsite isn't always the planning. It's translating that clarity, energy, and momentum into actual projects after everyone has left the room. For Sheila Head, Head of Marketing Operations at Asana, that translation work used to cost an entire work day. "The real work happens as soon as you wrap up the notes and assign action items and get people actually working on the initiatives you all aligned on," said Sheila.
