Securing Your DevOps Pipelines

Description

Every organization with a DevOps framework should be looking to shift toward a DevSecOps mindset, bringing individuals of all abilities and across all technology disciplines to a higher level of proficiency in security. From testing for potential security exploits to building business-driven security services, a DevSecOps framework that uses DevSecOps tools ensures security is built into applications rather than being bolted on haphazardly afterwards.

In Securing Your DevOps Pipelines: DevSecOps Best Practices, Milecia covers how DevSecOps improves upon regular DevOps pipelines. She covers the tools and methodologies you can use to bring DevSecOps to your organization. By the end of the course, you will know how to build a DevSecOps pipeline and how to integrate different tools to handle the OWASP Top Ten, as well as compliance checks to stay up to date with regulations like HIPAA, PCI, and GDPR.
