DevSecOps with traceable security controls

DevSecOps: security as part of the flow

DevSecOps makes security a shared responsibility of everyone who builds and runs software. Instead of a security review at the end, checks run continuously: in the design, in the code, in the pipeline and before every release.

Practices that make DevSecOps work

• Threat modeling when a feature is designed.
• Static analysis and dependency scanning on every pull request.
• Secrets kept out of the repository.
• Security acceptance criteria in user stories.
• A release gate that checks the security results before production.
• A record of every exception and of who accepted the risk.

The missing piece: governing the results

Scanners find problems; someone still has to decide what to do with them. A finding accepted without a record, or a release approved without looking at the scan, is a gap that tools alone do not close. That decision belongs in the change itself, with its evidence.

Where DevGob fits in your DevSecOps chain

• Your scanners keep running in your pipeline; DevGob shows each CI run on the work item.
• An approved code review is required before a change enters testing.
• Security test results can be recorded per environment, with evidence attached.
• The committee sees the risk level, change type and rollback plan before authorizing.
• MFA, single sign-on and an append-only audit log protect the platform itself.
