Course Overview

DevSecOps in the DevOps cycle helps in building security right from scratch into the design, into the code and into the deployment stages. It helps to enhance the efficiency of software security. The aim of DevSecOps is to bridge the gap between security and agility. 

In this course, you will be introduced to concepts of DevSecOps through continuous delivery. Before diving deep into the concept, you need to understand the challenges and constraints in DevOps like speed, design, cloud and container. Next, you will learn ways to inject security in DevOps like Shift Security Left, OWASP Proactive Controls, Secure by Default, Making Security Self-Service, Using Infrastructure as Code and the Honeymoon effect. Later the course will explain how to secure code in DevOps deployment. You will understand the lifecycle of continuous delivery and continuous integration, which is a controlled framework. 

Explore ways how to secure design by performing a risk assessment and learning aspects of writing and reviewing a secure code. You will be able to perform the practical implementation of Dynamic Scanning (DAST), Fuzzing and Continuous Delivery, Security in Unit and Integration Testing, Automated Attacks, Pen Testing and Bug Bounties and Vulnerability Management. In the end, you will be able to explore various mechanisms for securing the infrastructure and the process of production. The last topic would cover compliance that needs to be followed while writing the codes.

Brian Newman has worked for the three largest telecommunications companies in the US over the last 30 years. His experience has been in both wireless and wireline networks, focusing on deploying systems, improving operations, and transforming business processes. He has certifications from the Project Management Institute, Scaled Agile, and Verizon in Lean Six Sigma. In 1998, he received a US Patent [#5,835,907], which supported the initial integration of GPS data and cellular networks, leading to the use of smartphone geolocation and mapping that is common around the world today. Newman sees 5G as genuinely transformational and, as such, it has to have security that will enable it to provide less latency, higher bandwidth, and support for millions of concurrent attached devices. He is deeply involved in building and constructing 5G networks that have the right infrastructure from Day 1.
