Secure at every step: A guide to DevSecOps, shifting left, and GitOps

DevSecOps is an approach that integrates security into the DevOps process, making it a shared responsibility across development teams to prevent outages and data loss by addressing security requirements earlier in the lifecycle through the practice of "shifting left." This involves conducting security testing during the development phase rather than at the final deployment stage, enabling quicker identification and resolution of vulnerabilities. GitOps complements DevSecOps by using Git as the single source of truth for managing infrastructure, configurations, and applications, allowing for automated and error-free deployments. By incorporating security into the development workflow and utilizing Git for version control and automation, teams can enhance their ability to address security issues promptly and maintain a consistent and secure development pipeline. These practices reflect a broader trend where security becomes an integral part of the development process, empowering developers to proactively manage security risks.
