Over the years, developers have been dogged by a reputation for placing security as an afterthought. Get a slick, full-featured experience up and running fast, and figure out how to deal with whatever holes crop up once QA gets its hands on the code.
Organizations may have had a significant hand in fostering developers' laissez-faire attitude toward security by siloing teams in separate domains and giving development, QA, ops, and security operations isolated opportunities to levy their expertise on the code.
But with security and privacy increasingly top of mind among users and with companies moving more toward a devops approach to software development, developers need to shed that reputation and consider security concerns as an integral part of the development process.
