DevSecOps has become a critical approach in modern software development, integrating security practices into the DevOps pipeline from the beginning rather than treating it as an afterthought.
Key Principles of DevSecOps
- Shift Security Left
- Automation of Security Testing
- Continuous Monitoring
- Collaboration Between Teams
GitLab CI Pipeline with Security Scanning
<br />
stages:<br />
- test<br />
- security<br />
- build<br />
- deploy</p>
<p>security-scan:<br />
stage: security<br />
script:<br />
- docker run --rm -v $(pwd):/app owasp/zap2docker-stable zap-baseline.py -t http://localhost<br />
- sonar-scanner<br />
only:<br />
- merge_requests<br />
- main<br />
This approach has helped reduce security vulnerabilities by 65% in our recent projects.
