An Automated Approach to Scaling Your DevSecOps Organization
You see your team's
growth and success as being directly correlated with the size of your security
operations team. But it's not just about getting bigger; it's about making sure
that people are working on the right things at the right time and that their work
is efficient enough to scale up without compromising quality or effectiveness.
It's not enough to simply assume that your developers are safe, or even that
they're competent. A 2021 Github DevSecOp
survey showed
that 56% of ops teams members said they are “fully” or mostly automated – up
10% from 2021.You need to go beyond this and automate the entire process of
ensuring DevSecOps is being implemented correctly. In this article, I'll
outline a few key steps that can be taken to ensure automated DevSecOps becomes
a reality in your organization for Digital

Eliminate opportunities for human error.
An automated approach to
scaling your DecSecOps can eliminate opportunities for human error, allowing
you to quickly scale your security program and meet the demands of the
business.
- Use
automated tools to analyze code:
You can use automated tools that scan code for vulnerabilities, or you can
use an integrated development environment (IDE) like IntelliJ IDEA or
Visual Studio Code. These tools will help you find problems in your code
before they become major problems later on down the road.
- Use
automated tools to scan for vulnerabilities: There are many different types of scanners out there
that do this job well—some perform a full scan of an application, while
others focus only on specific parts of it (for example, finding SQL
injection). Some even have features that give them access rights so they
can modify files without prompting anyone else first! The most important
thing here is knowing how much time each one takes—how long does it take?
What's left after downloading all this stuff into my computer?"
Adopt a culture of continuous feedback and
improvement.
It's important to get
feedback from your peers, customers, and other stakeholders on how well you're
doing. This can be done by collecting data from surveys or other sources, or by
asking them directly for their opinions. You should also use intra-team
communication as an opportunity for open discussions about what works well in
your organization and what areas need improvement (e.g., customer support).
The key is that everyone
has a voice at all times—not just those who work directly with users on
day-to-day operations tasks like provisioning servers or scaling application
servers—and that they feel comfortable sharing ideas without fear of being
criticized or punished if they make mistakes along the way!
