Build a secure development and production pipeline

Main Line

Summary

Building a security-related development and production pipeline can be tricky if you are unaware of where to start or what each phase entails. To begin, you should be familiar with your attack surface. Next, you need to make changes to adapt and improve the existing processes in a step-by-step manner.

By following the best practices mentioned here, you can integrate security into your development process, identify vulnerabilities early, and respond to security incidents promptly. Incorporating security in a CI/CD pipeline is a continuous process, and it should be an ongoing effort to stay ahead of potential threats and vulnerabilities.

DevSecOps addresses the shortcomings of traditional security strategies, aligns security requirements with software development and delivery practices, and offers a comprehensive and proactive approach by blending security into every step of the SDLC process. It is the future of security in an ever-expanding digital world, implemented by following current development trends and practices, embracing automation, and promoting a collaborative, security-aware culture.
