How they approach application security
“The philosophy centers on 'DevSecOps' and 'Developer Enablement,' with a focus on fostering a culture of 'collaboration, engagement, and continuous learning.' The mission is to 'define and ensure implementation of cybersecurity requirements and controls' while driving initiatives that 'enhance the productivity, efficiency and quality of the software team.' Risk is managed through a formal 'enterprise risk management framework.'”
The team
The AppSec function at Smith+Nephew appears to be integrated within 'Product Security.' Key leaders include Ashley Woyak Bellus (Product Security Director) and Sahil Bhirud (Product Security). While a specific reporting line to the CISO or CTO is not publicly stated, the company is actively hiring for Product Security Engineers to 'define and ensure implementation of cybersecurity requirements.' As of April 2026, there is at least one active posting for a Product Security Engineer. Total team size is not publicly available.
What they're working on
Active initiatives include the adoption of DevSecOps, automation of test coverage, and formal 'Vulnerability Management.' The company follows a Secure SDLC that incorporates design control requirements such as IEC 62304 and ISO 14971. There is no public evidence of a formal 'Security Champions' program or specific recent tool rollouts in the last six months.
