Shift Left –Baked-in security

Shift Left

“Improve quality & security and reduce downstream disruptions by moving testing earlier in the software development lifecycle.”

Shift Left aligns with Agile Development- Do more earlier where it’s

cheaper + more effective- Continuous development/testing- Include feedback loops to

improve

DevOps & SecOps need to be aligned in key areas

DevOps SecOps

Processes(Scrum, Agile)

Integration & Automation(CI/CD, test-driven dev)

Tools & Technologies(Cloud, Containers)

Integrated Process(via DevOps process)

Automated Security(CI/CD pipeline, audit and verify)

Self-Service security tools for DevOps(CI/CD Plugins, APIs, Scripting)

Security selects & builds the security tooling

DevOps operationalizes & uses the security

tooling

Shift Left approaches for DevOps

Shift TimeShift security earlier into the DevOps cycle

Shift Techniques Shift Tools

Apply new techniques to help integrate security as opposite to bolting on

Use new and existing tools in different ways to support DevOps projects

Shift Left Approaches

It’s not about doing the same things earlier, but an opportunity to do different and better things earlier

Vulnerabilities are treated the same as software defects

Create a contract between IT & Security to facilitate integrated workflows

Apply Technique

Open vulnerabilities reported to business owners

Long held open vulnerabilities escalated to senior (CxO) management

1

Multiple web apps in both dev and production

Integrate the production web app security assessment tool into DevOps processes via API

Apply Technique

2

Keep track of security assessments issues in the same way as software bugs

Automatically create trouble tickets to fix security issues using the same systems

Apply Technique

3

Prevent security issues in production from becoming a large problem

Continuously assess web apps in both dev and production so issues are not re-introduced

Next Month

• Take an accounting of current security tools – are they DevOps friendly?

• Identify development teams using DevOps –engage and discuss DevSecOps

• Where are your Dev environments cloud, on-premise, hybrid

• Implement self-service and API-based continuous security

• Consolidate security tools across development/production and/or across cloud, on-premise, hybrid

• Expand to more projects & make security a fundamental part of any project

• Continue to learn & improve from vendors, DevSecOps user groups, partners, etc
