DevSecOps

DevSecOps — development, security and operations — integrates security into every phase of software development. In government, DevSecOps veers away from the traditional waterfall approach of software development in favor of integrating security practices throughout the software development lifecycle, from initial design to deployment and maintenance. This approach aims to build secure and resilient systems from the start, rather than bolting security on as an afterthought. For government agencies, this means protecting sensitive data, ensuring mission continuity and complying with stringent regulations. By embracing DevSecOps principles, government organizations can improve their cybersecurity posture, reduce risks and better serve citizens.
