Summary
In this chapter, we covered DevSecOps as a cultural shift that embeds security into every phase of the development process, emphasizing that security is a shared responsibility across teams. We talked about how we can set up the CI/CD pipeline using open source tools such as Jenkins, GitLab CI/CD, and Travis CI to automate building, testing, and deploying applications, making it easier to incorporate security checks at each stage.
We also covered how to implement security controls:
- Importance: They provide early vulnerability detection and continuous security checks, and distribute the security responsibility across the team
- Tools: Various open source tools such as OWASP ZAP, Bandit, Trivy, and Checkov offer vulnerability scanning, configuration management, and more
- Integration: Security controls should be deeply integrated into the DevSecOps pipeline, ensuring timely detection and mitigation of vulnerabilities
Once deployed, the applications and pipeline...
