Summary

Building in security testing as part of continuous integration is becoming increasingly essential for DevOps teams, enabling informed decisions about feature architecture and design with security requirements in mind. Effective communication between security and development teams is critical to share actionable information such as vulnerability CVSS scores and reproduction steps, facilitating quick patch implementation. However, integrating security into the existing workflow poses challenges due to differences in skill sets, business priorities, and risk assessment. To overcome these hurdles, managed bug bounty programs with APIs and turn-key integrations can streamline vulnerability data into the development workflow, allowing developers to fix vulnerabilities quickly while maintaining code velocity.
