Setting Up DevSecOps Data Compliance Processes to Liberate Developer Resources

Setting Up DevSecOps Data Compliance Processes to
Liberate Developer Resources
2

• It is no secret that DevSecOps provides data
  compliance processes far more effectively than
  ever before, and that too without jeopardising
  security and also liberating the developer
  resources.
• The question now is What is the best way to
  direct your IT team and ensure the safety of your
  applications and customers without depleting the
  resources in the process. The answer to this
  question is automation.
• Security - A Vital Element of DevSecOps

• To get the maximum benefits out of DataOps, it is
  important to get together an IT security team
  that aids throughout the life cycle of your apps.
  Back in the days, software used to take several
  months or even years to complete.
• And so it was just about fine to assign the role
  to the security team during the final stage of
  development. However, in the days of DataOps, the
  security team needs to be consulted from the
  first day itself, as a result of the swift and
  frequent development cycles.
• It usually takes only a few days for an effective
  DevSecOps to get completed. Hence, you need to
  rely on modern approaches to handle security
  concerns during the development phases of an
  application.
• How DataOps has changed as a result of Security?
• Developers should keep this in mind that security
  is a shared responsibility. It needs to be
  executed properly for the proper functioning of
  the applications.
• There has been a paradigm shift in the mindset so
  much that several have changed using the terms
  DataOps to DevSecOps to ensure the
  requirement of building a very sound security
  application.

• In case, you have taken the final call to move to
  the cloud with AWS, chances are, you might have
  already executed DataOps strategies into your
  interface. Hence, you can test new virtual
  machines (VM) and deploy applications swiftly
  without waiting for infrastructure to get
  manually configured.
• If you still believe in an old school mechanism
  while developing applications, chances are, you
  might ignore security till the very end which
  will make your application vulnerable to security
  issues. Most of the SMEs today misuse security
  during the beta tests. This is a very bad idea!
• Creating Data Compliance Processes for IT
• Even when you understand the importance of
  security while executing DataOps if you do not
  employ it properly with the processes used to the
  building of the applications, it would not help!
• It is essential to incorporate security into the
  processes by design otherwise, you are not
  taking full advantage of the ability of
  DevSecOps. If you are not able to effectively
  utilise it, your developer resources will also
  get neglected.

• As the name suggests, security needs to be at the
  centre of operations and development. In order to
  maintain compliance, it becomes imperative to
  ensure that there is a shared responsibility
  between AWS and the customer.
• AWS ensures the security of the cloud
  encompassing hardware and the hypervisor. It is
  the responsibility of the customers for the
  security in the cloud which is taken care of with
  the aid of services through a third-party vendor.

• Automation - The Vital Cog in the Compliance
  Processes
• It is great to have a security first attitude.
  However, you need to ask one essential question
  Are you taking necessary actions with your
  compliance processes to liberate your developer
  resources?

• If the answer is not quite it is time to direct
  your attention to automation. Automation is the
  key to DevSecOps still, several systems do not
  have the right tools. This is the unfortunate
  case for organisations that have the requisite
  skills and procedures in-house to execute
  built-in security processes directly into the
  application by design.
• How to Secure Automation on DevSecOps?
• While adding new processes, think from the
  customers perspective to address their security
  needs. Ensure that cyber resilience into the
  application is taken into account even before the
  first code is written.
• It is imperative to have a cloud-based
  vulnerability scanning solution with you. With
  its help, you can define standards for the AMI
  and adhere to those standards.
• Execute an examination, logging, and monitoring
  solution to ascertain changes to the in-use AMIs.
  With its help, you can merge account activity
  with AWS resources from the cloud with data
  pertaining to security incidents. Thanks to the
  in-use AMI changes, it will become easier to geet
  ongoing insights about security controls and
  establishing control over network security.

top of what an internal staff or staffs
integrator can assist automating, there are other
terrific resources for automation. This is how
you set up DevSecOps data compliance processes to
liberate developer resources.
