Platform teams are extending their responsibilities to security as platform engineering takes DevOps to the next level
Platform engineering, which takes the concepts behind DevOps and applies them at a grander scale, continues to grow its reach, extending into troubleshooting security problems across enterprise application development.

Platform engineering builds on this with a team made up of product managers and engineers, creating and maintaining the shared infrastructure needed by developers.
