Moving to a DevSecOps model doesn’t happen overnight. Rather, it’s both a strategic and continual improvement process aimed at delivering:
Traditional models use “tollgates” and “checkpoints” to test for vulnerabilities after development is complete. This stops the forward flow momentum by sending the product back to development for rework and remediation; however, in the DevSecOps world where speed and quality is paramount, this does not work.
Instead, by using a ‘shift-left’ approach, the objective is to secure the product in the design stage and create as many secure services that developers can take advantage of in the CI/CD pipeline.
The following table highlights the fact that many security services can be leveraged before and after the product development lifecycle, reducing workload and impact to the actual code development pipeline.
DevSecOps emphasizes the culture change, one that results in a world where developers, operations, and security teams can collaborate more efficiently. Security teams working more closely with the application developers and operations team can better understand daily habits and workflows and devise ways to effectively integrate security into the software development lifecycle (SDLC), infrastructure as a code (IaaC), etc.
• Hardened security practices: An approach that was developed over many years of implementing cloud and application security for our
prestigious client.
• Improved time to market: Automated checks built into the cloud deployment pipeline look for regularly occurring failures and autocorrect them without human intervention.
• Increased compliance: Ability to reduce compliance findings and decrease time from audit request to evidence delivery.
