DevSecOps best practices for cloud-native apps in multi-cloud environments

Since we have discussed data and security, we now encounter a critical juncture where DevOps and security intersect. This section serves as a comprehensive guide for embedding security into the DevOps life cycle, following the principles of DevSecOps.

Integrating security into the DevOps workflow

At the very heart of the DevSecOps fortress lies the core understanding of its significance—an agile and seamless integration of security practices into the very fabric of the DevOps workflow. In multi-cloud environments, where agility, speed, and security converge to create a formidable alliance, DevSecOps stands as a guardian, ensuring that cloud-native apps flourish under an umbrella of protection. Key aspects of DevSecOps principles are the following:

  • The imperative of DevSecOps: In any well-coordinated expedition, each team member must be well equipped and informed. The same holds true for...
