DevSecOps represents the necessary evolution of DevOps, where security becomes a shared responsibility integrated throughout the development lifecycle.

Key DevSecOps Practices

• Shift Left Security: Identify vulnerabilities earlier in the development process
• Infrastructure as Code Scanning: Secure your Terraform and CloudFormation templates
• Automated Compliance: Enforce security policies as code
• Runtime Protection: Monitor production workloads for suspicious activity

Implementation Strategy

Effective DevSecOps adoption requires:

1. Cultural alignment between teams
2. Selection of appropriate tooling
3. Gradual rollout of security gates
4. Continuous measurement and improvement
