For security to be effectively implemented in a DevOps environment, it must be seamlessly integrated into every aspect of the workflow. Failure to do so would render security unmanageable and impede scalability.
Embedding security into every workflow means incorporating security practices and considerations right from the beginning, rather than treating it as a separate task. This approach is referred to as DevSecOps. The main objective of DevSecOps is to enable teams that build and deliver software to identify and address critical security issues as early as possible in the development cycle.
