Best practices for CI/CD security
The foundation of DevOps is CI/CD. Through automated monitoring and processes throughout the development cycle, CI/CD provides value to software production. In this rapidly evolving, technology-driven environment, security must be balanced with the need for flexibility. To prevent data breaches, the best approach is to build security into the development process.
Here are some of the best practices for securing CI/CD pipelines:
- Use IaC to manage and provision IT resources on Google Cloud. IaC uses configuration files and automation tools to manage resources to ensure that resources are set up correctly and efficiently.
- Automate builds and deployments with tools such as Jenkins, CircleCI, and Spinnaker to define and execute the necessary steps in the process. These automation tools make it easy to quickly deploy code changes and reduce the risk of potential bugs and are essential for a successful CI/CD pipeline.
- Using Git for version...
