GitGuardian's latest white paper, "DevSecOps: Protecting the Modern Software Factory," introduces the AppSec Shared Responsibility Model, which advocates for a collaborative approach to application security among Developers, AppSec, and Ops teams. This model addresses the challenge highlighted by their 2022 State of Secrets Sprawl report, which found a significant imbalance in the ratio of AppSec engineers to software developers, resulting in overwhelming security vulnerabilities for individual AppSec engineers. By embedding security controls into the DevOps culture, the shared responsibility model aims to break traditional security silos, allowing developers to use appropriate tools for addressing familiar security issues while security engineers focus on complex assessments. Ops teams are also involved to ensure proper security CI/CD configurations. The paper emphasizes that this collaborative approach is crucial for scaling secure software development as teams expand and new threats emerge, and it outlines key aspects of a DevOps-ready security solution that can facilitate this transition by promoting security automation and best practices organization-wide.
