Effective DevOps security demands cross-functional collaboration and buy-in to ensure security considerations are integrated into the entire product development lifecycle (product design, development, delivery, operations, support, etc.). DevSecOps will entail embedding governance and cybersecurity functions such as identity and access management (IAM), privilege management, firewalling / unified threat management, code review, configuration management, and vulnerability management throughout the DevOps workflow. When done right, you have aligned security with DevOps and enable efficient product releases, while avoiding costly recalls or fixes after code/products are released. For this to succeed, everyone needs to take ownership of adhering to security best practices within their roles.
