Feedback loop in DevSecOps - mature security process and dev cooperation

Abstract:Having Security testing in the pipeline is getting more and more popular, I would say it is becoming a standard! But what we are doing with findings? What are we automating and how are using the automation?The presentation will cover security-as-a-code practices to integrate security testing into the CI and CD pipelines, but in addition - I will discuss the part of the testing that cannot be automated, which is penetration testing. How do you connect it with your automation testing and what is the role of penetration testing in monitoring? I will show how it affects next round of the process and what the process should look like.During the presentation I will discuss real use cases from different pipelines and security tools, showing pros and cons, advantages and challenges. Demo will include GitHub Actions and open-source tools like OWASP ZAP and examples will be provided with pipeline-as-a-code and security-as-a-code. Real life use cases and examples with step-by-step instruction how the development process in mature state of DevSecOps should look like.
