DevSecOps is the practice of integrating security into the DevOps process. It extends the principles of DevOps to include security considerations throughout the software development lifecycle, from planning and coding to testing and deployment. DevSecOps emphasizes the importance of building security into applications and infrastructure from the start, rather than addressing it as an afterthought. This approach involves automating security checks, conducting regular vulnerability assessments, and ensuring compliance with security policies. Tools like Snyk, Aqua Security, and HashiCorp Vault facilitate DevSecOps practices. By adopting DevSecOps, organizations can enhance their security posture and reduce the risk of security breaches and vulnerabilities.
