Security Risk Management Planning

How we do planning

Our milestone planning is handled asynchronously as much as possible. Planning discussions are fluid and ongoing, in general they do not follow a predefined monthly schedule.

Planning Breakdown

Top priority features from upcoming release milestones go through Planning Breakdown with Product Managers (PMs), Product Designers (UX), Engineering Managers (EMs) & Engineers from the respective groups. Weekly group-level synchronous meetings facilitate this discussion. The list of issues to be discussed is provided by the PM at least 1 day prior to the meeting. The expectation is that all attendees have reviewed the issues prior to the start of the meeting. Attendees should add the carrot 🥕 emoji to signify that an issue has been reviewed in advance.

Security Risk Management, Security Insights
The Security Insights group at GitLab is charged with developing solutions to enable customers to manage their security risks effectively and efficiently.
