Determining goals for continuous security
Considering an organization that wants to transform toward continuous security (which was defined in Chapter 1), examples of transformation goals for each of the six categories defined earlier in this chapter are described here:
- Agility:
- We integrate security assessments into sprints, ensuring a high percentage of new code undergoes security review before release.
- We deploy security patches quickly after identification, maintaining our commitment to rapid response across all systems.
- We adapt our security protocols based on emerging threats quickly after discovery, staying ahead of potential vulnerabilities.
- We conduct agile retrospectives frequently, focused on security practices, continuously refining our approach based on the latest insights.
- Efficiency:
- We automate a high percentage of our routine security monitoring tasks, reducing manual effort and increasing our operational efficiency.
- We decrease the time to detect security threats...
