For today’s DevSecOps teams, the demands continue to intensify. Application portfolios and codebases continue to grow, while cyberattacks remain an ever-present danger. More than ever, it’s vital to ensure security gaps are identified and addressed with maximum speed and efficiency. In order to do this, you need to establish a continuous feedback loop on security threats, so you can realize optimized, sustained results – which is exactly how Veracode helps.
Proper IT secrets management is essential to protecting your organization from cyberthreats, particularly in DevOps environments, where common CI/CD pipeline tools such as Jenkins, Ansible, Github Actions, and Azure DevOps use secrets to access databases, SSH servers, HTTPs services and other highly sensitive systems.
There are already so many words and concepts in information security: why do we need another one? And indeed ‘attestation’ is already used in several industry contexts with many subtly different meanings: what do we gain by overloading it?
The basic idea behind DevSecOps is to introduce security as early as possible in the software development life cycle (SDLC). At the same time, the model can lead to increased collaboration between development and security teams as part of the effort to integrate security into the SDLC. In other words, DevSecOps provides an excellent foundation for an effective vulnerability management strategy.
