DevSecOps Best Practices and Learning Resources
DevSecOps is a collaborative approach to software development that integrates security considerations throughout the entire software lifecycle, from ideation and planning to deployment and monitoring. Here are some definitive best practices and learning resources for each stage:
Development:
- Secure coding practices: Train developers on secure coding practices like input validation, memory management, and error handling. Resources:
