Practical DevOps Security

Protect your organisation with the collaboration of DevOps and security

DevOps enables rapid  application development while security teams follow a traditional way of  performing security checks. If security (that is, configuration checks,  code analysis, vulnerability scanning, and more) is not adequately  automated then it leads to increased security violations and  hacking/phishing attacks. Integrating security in the DevOps ethos helps  fix flaws earlier in the development process. This course shows you how  to apply DevOps security best practices at every stage in your DevOps  pipeline. You will learn proven approaches to reducing vulnerability and  strengthening your defenses against attack. You will understand using  security as code with the intent of making security and compliance  consumable as a service. This course explains how DevOps security  practices differ from traditional security approaches and provides  techniques to embed governance and cybersecurity functions throughout  the DevOps workflow. By the end of the course, you will have learned  best practices in DevSecOps, the core concepts of secure DevOps, and how  security can be integrated into the development pipeline.
