Human Error - The Most Common Cybersecurity Mistakes for DevOps

Even though security tooling and automation in DevOps have advanced, human error remains the primary cause of cybersecurity breaches. It’s commonly known that nearly 95% of security incidents stem from our mistakes. A smiled dev philosopher would say: “We’re all just beta software in the giant simulation called life. Debugging takes time.”
