Integrating Security Into the DevSecOps Toolchain

gartner-logo-140rgb.jpg
As DevOps continues to gain popularity for rapid delivery and innovation of IT-enabled capabilities, concerns about security increase. Security and risk management leaders must adapt security tools, processes and policies to the DevOps toolchain without slowing the development and release process. 

 

Key Challenges 

  • DevOps adoption is increasing as an alternative to traditional waterfall and agile development methodologies, but security and compliance typically remain afterthoughts. 
  • DevOps practices encourage automation to achieve scale, but security has traditionally been manual, process-heavy and gate-driven — the antithesis of automation, transparency and speed. 
  • Most developers have no knowledge of secure coding, including those versed in agile and DevOps. 
  • Traditional application security testing approaches weren’t designed for speed and transparency. 
  • For some applications in specific industries, new versions need to be government-recertified after every production update, making rapid change an issue.
