didn't

This is the auxiliary verb of the simple tenses in the negative form. It shows that the action this was not a habit in the past.

use

--feedback--

This is the base form of the verb used for past habits, not conjugated in its past form here, because the auxiliary verb didn't carries the past tense.

--explanation--

In negative sentences with used to, the auxiliary verb didn't is used to indicate the past, and the main verb use remains in its base form (not conjugated).

This structure emphasizes that an action was not habitual or common in the past.

Important: The auxiliary verb didn't makes the sentence negative. The verb use stays in its base form because the past tense is already conveyed by didn't. For example:

We didn't use to have weekly meetings, but now we do. - This means weekly meetings were not common back then.

In Linda's sentence, she is saying that integrating security and design was not a regular practice in the past.
