Overview of DevSecOps Basics
In today’s fast‑moving software world, building quickly and securely is non‑negotiable. That’s why I’m excited to share a free three‑session DevSecOps course designed to help engineers, managers, and security professionals seamlessly integrate security into their workflows.
Session 1 – Introduction, Evolution & Core Principles
We’ll explore the origins of DevSecOps, why it emerged from traditional DevOps, and the fundamental principles like shift‑left security, continuous integration/delivery, automation, collaboration, and policy‑as‑code.
Session 2 – Key Components, Tools & Benefits
This session breaks down the core components of a successful DevSecOps program: collaboration, communication, automation, environment security, and continuous testing. We’ll cover essential tools such as SAST, DAST, IAST, SCA, IaC scanning, secrets management, SIEM/SOAR, and explain how DevSecOps strengthens security, speeds releases, simplifies compliance, and lowers costs.
Session 3 – Challenges, Best Practices & Roadmap
Adopting DevSecOps can be challenging. We’ll address common hurdles like cultural resistance, tool integration, and balancing speed with security. You’ll learn best practices, a phased adoption roadmap, metrics to track progress, emerging trends, and real‑world success stories from Netflix, Adobe, Comcast, and the U.S. Department of Defense.
Each session includes a custom illustration to visualize the journey. Whether you’re starting or looking to refine your approach, this series provides practical guidance to embed security into your SDLC without slowing down innovation.
