Short description DevOps Security and Compliance ensures that security practices and regulatory requirements are integrated into every stage of the software development lifecycle. It focuses on proactive threat detection, vulnerability scanning, compliance checks, and secure coding practices, enabling teams to deliver reliable applications quickly while staying protected against risks and adhering to industry standards.
Outcomes
  • Understand DevOps Security Fundamentals Learners will be able to explain the importance of integrating security and compliance into the DevOps lifecycle.
  • Identify Risks and Vulnerabilities Learners will gain the ability to recognize common security risks, vulnerabilities, and compliance challenges in DevOps environments.
  • Apply Secure DevOps Practices Learners will be able to implement secure coding standards, secrets management, and automated security checks within CI/CD pipelines.
  • Ensure Compliance with Industry Standards Learners will learn how to integrate regulatory compliance requirements (e.g., GDPR, HIPAA, PCI-DSS) into DevOps processes
  • Use Tools for DevOps Security and Compliance Learners will acquire practical knowledge of tools for vulnerability scanning, compliance validation, and monitoring.
  • Develop Security-First Mindset in Teams Learners will be able to promote a culture of shared responsibility, ensuring developers, operations, and security teams collaborate effectively.
Requirements
  • Integration of Security into CI/CD Pipelines Security checks (vulnerability scanning, code analysis, compliance validation) must be automated and embedded in the software delivery pipeline.
  • Identity and Access Management (IAM) Implement role-based access control (RBAC), least privilege policies, and multi-factor authentication (MFA) to protect systems and data.
  • Vulnerability Scanning and Threat Detection Continuous scanning of applications, infrastructure, and dependencies to identify and remediate risks early.
  • Compliance Enforcement Automated compliance checks aligned with industry standards (e.g., GDPR, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, ISO 27001). Maintain audit trails and evidence for regulatory reporting.
  • Secure Coding Practices Developers must follow secure coding guidelines, perform code reviews, and use tools for static and dynamic application security testing (SAST/DAST).
  • Secrets Management Use secure vaults or key management systems (e.g., HashiCorp Vault, AWS KMS) to protect passwords, API keys, and certificates.
  • Monitoring and Logging Real-time monitoring, centralized logging, and anomaly detection to quickly identify and respond to incidents.
  • Incident Response and Recovery Plan Clearly defined processes for handling security breaches, including detection, containment, recovery, and post-incident analysis
  • Continuous Training and Awareness Teams must stay updated on emerging threats, compliance requirements, and best practices for DevSecOps.
  • Infrastructure as Code (IaC) Security Validate and secure IaC templates (Terraform, CloudFormation, etc.) to prevent misconfigurations and policy violations.
