Integrate Security into CI/CD Pipelines
We embed robust security controls and practices throughout your DevOps pipeline, ensuring that security is an integral part of the development process from start to finish.
Continuous
Monitoring
Our services include real-time monitoring and feedback on your security posture, allowing you to stay ahead of potential threats and maintain a secure environment.
Automate Security Testing
We offer automated scanning and testing for vulnerabilities, ensuring that security checks are seamlessly integrated into your development cycle, catching issues before they become problems.
Compliance Management
Our solutions help you adhere to regulatory requirements such as HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and GDPR, ensuring that your applications and infrastructure meet the highest standards of security compliance.
Secure Coding
Practices
We promote guideline-driven coding practices to prevent vulnerabilities from the start, ensuring that your codebase is secure and resilient against any third-party malicious attacks.
Risk
Management
We assist in identifying, evaluate and mitigating all security risks, helping you protect your assets and reduce the likelihood of internal or external security breaches.
Incident
Response
We help you proactively plan and respond to security incidents, minimizing impact and ensuring swift recovery. This ensures that all business operations return to normal faster and that you face minimal downtime.
Team
Collaboration
Our approach promotes cross-functional teamwork between development, security, and operation teams, ensuring that all departments work together to maintain a secure environment.
Planning, coding, building, and testing the application.
Security checks are conducted at every stage to ensure all security vulnerabilities are resolved.
All bugs and issues are managed and fixed before the application is released.
Automated security tools are integrated within the CI/CD pipeline to continuously scan for vulnerabilities. This includes dependency scans, static analysis, interactive application security testing, dynamic testing, infrastructure as Code (Iac) Security, and Infrastructure scanning (container/Kubernetes), so that security checks are done as early and often as possible.
The security practice is involved at the very beginning of the development lifecycle, ensuring security vulnerabilities are identified and fixed prior to deployment. Developers are trained in secure coding, with security testing at every stage.
Continuous monitoring tools are deployed to observe the environment for threats, anomalies, and compliance violations. This includes automated alerting systems and tools that enable quick responses to incidents.
DevSecOps promotes teamwork between security, development, and operations teams. Shared security responsibility among all employees fosters a culture of transparency and security awareness across the organization.
Security policies and compliance requirements are embedded into development. The workflow includes audits, compliance checks, and security controls to ensure that applications adhere to industry regulations and standards.
| Aspect | DevOps | DevSecOps |
|---|---|---|
| Focus | DevOps focuses on collaboration between development and operations teams. | DevSecOps focuses on the integration of security into the entire SDLC life cycle. |
| Key Practices | - Continuous Integration (CI), - Continuous Delivery (CD), - Automated Testing, - Infrastructure As Code (IaC). |
- Secure Coding Practices, - Automated Security Testing, - Vulnerability Management, - Continuous Security Monitoring, - Compliance Management. |
| Main Goal | The main goal of DevOps is to speed up software development and deployment, improve collaboration, and ensure reliability and scalability. | The main goal of DevSecOps is to embed security into every stage of the DevOps pipeline, ensuring software is secure from the outset. |
| Security Integration | Security is often addressed separately or at the end. | Security is incorporated throughout all phases of development and operations. |
| Cultural Shift | Focus on collaboration between development and operations. | All team members, including security professionals, share responsibility for security. |
| Tools and Practices | Standard DevOps tools and practices aimed at efficiency and automation. | Additional tools and practices for security, including automated security testing and continuous vulnerability assessments. |
Our DevSecOps teams utilize the SAST tools to detect custom or proprietary code for any kind of design flaw and coding issues that could result in exploitation. Unlike DevOps tools, these SAST tools are used during the DevSecOps SDLC, securing the entire development phase.
Our team employs a range of SCA tools to examine source code and binaries, identifying known vulnerabilities in open-source and third-party components. These SCA tools also help our DevSecOps developers assess security and license risks, enabling us to prioritize and address issues more effectively.
IAST tools, working in the background during manual or automated functional tests, analyze web application runtime behavior. Our team employs IAST tools to configure runtime vulnerabilities and automatically replays and tests the evidence which provides comprehensive insights to our DevSecOps developers. This way, IAST provides the line of vulnerable code to the developers directly, enabling them to focus directly on the critical weak point.
DAST is an automated black-box testing technology that simulates a hacker's interactions with your web application or API. The developers at Arpatech use DAST to evaluate applications through network connections and by analyzing the client-side rendering of the application, enabling us to identify any and all outer-layer vulnerabilities.
Sometimes security tools like AST and network controls often lack real-time visibility into data and events, which can lead to unnoticed security gaps. RASP (Runtime Application Self-Protection) addresses this by offering real-time protection. RASP personnel use runtime instrumentation to monitor inputs, block harmful data, and prevent tampering. They can either detect and report harmful entries or automatically block them, enabling seamless DevSecOps development.
Everything You Need to Know about DevSecOps Consulting Services.
Implementing DevSecOps enhances security by integrating it throughout development, reducing vulnerabilities early. It also speeds up delivery and ensures compliance while promoting better collaboration across teams.
The number one benefit of DevSecOps is the code quality and secure code you get. Today, businesses prioritize security above all other operations because facing a security breach is their worst nightmare. Therefore, investing in DevSecOps is the right direction for all businesses.
Some of the best practices of DevSecOps development include integrating security early in the development lifecycle, automating security testing, and ensuring continuous monitoring and feedback.
When we think about the future of DevSecOps, the one thing that comes to mind is: more security. Working with a cross-functional team, you’re sure to get a secure and robust environment for your application development requirements.
