Welcome to Section 1 of this lesson. In this section, we’ll:
  • Define DevSecOps and contrast it with traditional DevOps
  • Identify key security checkpoints within each phase of the Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC)
  • Provide an at-a-glance toolchain to support your DevSecOps workflow
Let’s dive in!
DevSecOps is more than a set of tools—it’s a culture that embeds security into every stage of development.
