Shifting Security Left: A Proactive Approach
Traditionally, security testing often came as an afterthought in the software development lifecycle. This ‘patch later’ approach, however, leaves applications vulnerable to security breaches and compliance issues. DevSecOps offers a proactive solution by integrating security best practices throughout the entire development process. By incorporating security tools and techniques early on, DevSecOps empowers teams to identify and address vulnerabilities before they become costly problems.
Mahesha Pandit, Chief Technology Officer (CTO) at Canarys, highlighted the importance of DevSecOps: “It’s not just about deploying code; it’s about embedding security into the very DNA of development and operations. DevSecOps is the key to mitigating risks, ensuring compliance, and fostering a culture of continuous improvement in the pursuit of secure and reliable software delivery.”
In his keynote talk, VP of DevOps Consulting Business at Canarys Nagaraj Bhairaji, emphasized on the shift left approach of security in software development. He talked about the evolution of DevOps into DevSecOps where the company takes on a security-first mindset, putting security into every phase of the development lifecycle, from design to delivery. He also explained how companies can gain both the speed with DevOps practices and the holistic security with peace of mind that comes with DevSecOps.
