Introduction au DevSecOps 2/2

Security Automation

• Automating security tasks and processes to reduce manual effort and increase efficiency
• Examples:
  • Automated vulnerability scanning and patching
  • Automated compliance reporting
  • Automated security testing and validation
• Benefits:
  • Faster response to security threats
  • Improved accuracy and consistency
  • Reduced risk of human error

Compliance As Code

• Defining and managing compliance requirements as code
• Storing compliance policies and procedures in a version control system (e.g. Git)
• Benefits:
  • Version control and tracking of changes
  • Automated compliance testing and validation
  • Consistent application of compliance policies across the organization

Infrastructure As Code

• Defining and managing infrastructure configuration as code
• Storing infrastructure configuration in a version control system (e.g. Git)
• Benefits:
  • Version control and tracking of changes
  • Automated deployment and management of infrastructure
  • Consistent application of infrastructure configuration across the organization

Security Orchestration

• Automating and coordinating security incident response and remediation
• Examples:
  • Automated workflows for incident response
  • Integration with security tools and systems
  • Automated reporting and notification
• Benefits:
  • Faster response to security incidents
  • Improved coordination and communication among teams
  • Reduced mean time to detect (MTTD) and mean time to respond (MTTR)

Threat Modeling

• Identifying and assessing potential security threats to an application or system
• Examples:
  • Identifying potential attack vectors
  • Assessing the likelihood and impact of threats
  • Prioritizing security efforts based on threat risk
• Benefits:
  • Improved security posture
  • Reduced risk of security breaches
  • Proactive security efforts rather than reactive
