Incorporating Security is the Next Step in the Evolution of DevOps

As the evolution of DevOps continues, security measures are being integrated into product development processes. Will DevSecOps live up to its promise for enterprises?

DevOps has been a staple at Actifio Inc. since its founding in 2009.

But much like the evolution of DevOps has continued throughout the past eight years, so has the tech company’s version of it. In fact, Actifio has moved into the next iteration: DevSecOps.

The company has shifted security testing to a much earlier stage in product development, said Actifio CSO John A. Meyers. It also increased automation and gave developers, solution architects and product managers access to testing tools, too. The result: DevSecOps has spread responsibility for security to roles beyond just security professionals.
