DevSecOps in regulated industries

DevSecOps-…3 MB pdf

DevOps practices enable rapid product engineering delivery and operations, particularly by agile teams using lean practices. There is an evolution from DevOps to DevSecOps, which is at the intersection of development, operations, and security. Security cannot be added after product development is complete and security testing cannot be done as a once-per-release cycle activity. Shifting security Left implies integration of security at all stages of the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). Adoption of DevSecOps practices enables faster, more reliable and more secure software.

While DevSecOps emerged from Internet and software companies, it can benefit other industries, including regulated and high security environments. This whitepaper covers how incorporating DevSecOps in regulated Industries can accelerate software delivery, reducing the time from code change to production deployment or release while reducing security risks.

This whitepaper defines a playbook for DevSecOps goals, addresses challenges, and discusses evolving workflows in DevSecOps, including cloud, agile, application modernization and digital transformation. Bi-directional requirement traceability, document generation and security tests should be part of the CI/CD pipeline. Regulated industries can securely move away from traditional V cycle software development to a more agile approach by taking advantage of DevSecOps.
