DevSecOps

Automating Security Throughout Your CI/CD

In the fast-paced world of modern software delivery, traditional security gates can become bottlenecks, slowing down innovation. DevSecOps is about integrating security seamlessly into your existing DevOps practices, making security a shared responsibility and embedding automated security checks throughout the continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipeline. This "shifting left" of security is essential for identifying and addressing vulnerabilities early and efficiently.

CShift provides expertise in DevSecOps to help your organization build security into the speed and agility of your DevOps pipelines. We offer our knowledge and support to integrate security practices, automation, and a collaborative security culture across your development and operations teams. This includes advising on the selection and integration of automated security tools, establishing security gates within your CI/CD workflows, and fostering the collaboration needed to make security an integral part of every stage of the software delivery lifecycle.

The Value

Leveraging CShift's DevSecOps expertise brings significant benefits to your software delivery process:

Faster, More Secure Releases: Accelerate your release cycles with automated security checks embedded directly into the pipeline.

Automated Security Controls: Implement security gates and automated testing that provide continuous feedback and prevent insecure code from reaching production.

Improved Collaboration: Foster a culture of shared responsibility for security between development, security, and operations teams.

Continuous Security Feedback: Provide developers with rapid feedback on security issues, enabling quicker remediation.

Reduced Technical Debt: Address security vulnerabilities early in the pipeline, reducing the cost and effort of fixing them later.

Stronger Delivery Pipeline Security: Enhance the overall security posture of your build, test, and deployment processes.

Our Approach

Our approach to providing DevSecOps expertise is centered on practical integration and cultural transformation. A CShift expert collaborates closely with your development and operations teams to understand your existing DevOps pipelines and workflows. We provide guidance on identifying opportunities to integrate security touchpoints, recommend and assist with the implementation of appropriate automated security tools (like SAST, DAST, SCA, IaC scanning), and help define security gates. We also support the cultural shift required for successful DevSecOps adoption, promoting collaboration and shared ownership of security throughout your organization.
