Summary

Developers want fast pipelines and easy security, while security teams aim to protect the business, resulting in high-quality mobile apps on time that support the business and excite mobile users. Prioritizing speed over quality can lead to serious consequences such as data theft, user risk, compliance violations, and damage to the business. A "secure-by-design" development model, like the Mobile DevSecOps Framework, allows organizations to quickly release high-quality mobile apps with built-in security and privacy. Implementing a Mobile DevSecOps Blueprint leveraging Bitrise and NowSecure can help teams achieve these goals by establishing mobile policy via standards for optimization, providing mobile appsec training for continuous improvement, crafting mobile security-specific requirements, facilitating secure mobile code development, automating appsec testing for continuous security, embedding dev remediation for faster repair, running periodic guided testing and pen testing, performing final battery of pre-release pen testing, monitoring production app store for continuous security, and integrating the NowSecure platform with Bitrise workflows. By adopting these strategies, organizations can improve release cycles, reduce security issues, and deliver quality mobile apps to users.
