5 Security Threats DevOps Teams Should Know
DevOps.com, Thursday, January 25th, 2024
DevOps security, also known as DevSecOps, is a philosophy in which security practices are integrated into the DevOps process. DevOps security involves creating a 'security-as-code' culture with ongoing, flexible collaboration between release engineers and security teams.
The DevSecOps movement, much like DevOps itself, is focused on creating new solutions for complex software development processes within an agile framework.
DevOps security is about breaking down silos and promoting open collaboration across teams. It's about making everyone accountable for security with the ultimate aim of improving the quality and speed of code releases. The adoption of a DevOps security model necessitates a cultural shift across the organization. It requires the integration of security into every aspect of the development and operations processes.
DevOps Security is not just about implementing tools and technologies; it's about changing the way we look at security. Rather than being an afterthought, security should be a key part of the ongoing conversation from the start of the project to the end.
