Whether you’re just starting out or are looking for new ways to integrate security within DevOps (and vice versa), Twitter is a great place to seek out info and be a part of the discussions.

Dec 18, 2015 By Sarah Vonnegut | With organizational culture – and along with it processes and technology – evolving at a pace we’ve never experienced before, we can’t sit back and wait for the “DevOps fad” to fade away. It’s not a fad, it’s an evolved way of software development. And security cannot be the elephant in the room, the team everyone avoids because it just gets too complicated. Security must evolve, as well. We must become SecDevOps.   Many organizations are now routinely pushing out tens if not hundreds of releases and updates on a daily basis. If there’s ever been a wake-up call for the security industry to change their outdated ways – DevOps is it.

Nov 13, 2015 By Sarah Vonnegut | Developers and engineers all around the world are deploying code hundreds of thousands of times a day. Hundreds of millions of lines of code are churned out on a monthly basis, and it’s only going to get faster. Yet the security industry continues to kick our feet about DevOps.   But security teams can’t afford to continue the tip-toeing act we’ve been doing around DevOps. We need to find a way to better integrate our security needs within DevOps processes – and we need to do it fast.  DevOps is here, and it’s up to the security team to determine how security processes and tools will fit into the mix – or risk being edged out.

Jun 22, 2015 By Sarah Vonnegut | As we wrote about last week, the explosion of DevOps – with 88% of businesses saying they’ve adopted or will adopt DevOps within the next five years – has made it clear that we need to tightly integrate security in the fast-paced, iterative cultures that are DevOps organizations.   We can’t fight DevOps, if we ever did. DevOps is good all around when done right – and security plays a big part in helping DevOps organizations thrive. And luckily for you, lots of security and DevOps people already have experience in how to work in harmony together – and even better, they want to pass their knowledge along. There is some great watching and reading material to draw inspiration, ideas and advice from – so we gathered up 21 of the best talks and other resources we’ve seen to help you along the way.

Jan 16, 2014 By Sarah Vonnegut | This post is based on our AppSec How-To Paper on Achieving Security in DevOps, which you can access here.
In DevOps, when you’re deploying hundreds, possibly thousands, of features and bug fixes a week, security cannot afford to be an afterthought. The beautiful thing about DevOps is that it’s a process that continues to get more streamlined, faster and more efficient – and your deployments will be that much better if they’re also fully secure before release time comes.
