What is
DevSecOps?
DevSecOps is
a software development practice that focuses on the security of applications
and systems. It combines the roles of developers, operations engineers, and
security professionals to ensure that applications are developed in an
efficient way while also being secure. The goal is to increase efficiency by
reducing costs associated with fixing vulnerabilities after they've been
deployed into production environments.
The increased efficiency brought about by DevSecOps Tools can be attributed to its ability to streamline processes
across all three groups involved: development, operations and security teams.
For example, if there's an issue with your application's code or infrastructure
configuration that needs fixing before it goes live on production servers (i.e.,
somewhere where users could see it), this process will now happen much faster
because everyone involved has access to all relevant information at once
instead of having separate conversations between each individual group member
who might not know what another person knows about a particular problem area
within their respective domains
Software
Composition Analysis (SCA)
Software
composition analysis (SCA) is a method of analysing and managing software
components. It involves identifying open source components, inventorying them,
analysing them for vulnerabilities and remediating them when necessary.
SCA tools can help you ensure that your organization has the right processes in
place to identify and remediate all known vulnerabilities in your applications
before they are released into production.
Top 5
DevSecOps Tools
WhiteSource
Bolt
WhiteSource
Bolt is a DevSecOps tool that automates the process of finding and fixing
vulnerabilities in your code. It's an extension of WhiteSource, which also
provides you with information about open source components used in your
applications. The Bolt tool allows you to scan your application for known
vulnerabilities, then fixes them automatically using one-click patches or a
patching workflow that can be customized based on the severity of each
vulnerability found.
OWASP
Dependency Check
OWASP
Dependency Check
OWASP Dependency Check is a tool that helps you check your dependencies against
known vulnerabilities. It can be used to avoid them when building new
applications, or it can be used to ensure that existing applications are free
of known vulnerabilities.
Sonatype
Nexus
Sonatype
Nexus is an enterprise-grade repository manager that allows you to manage all
types of artifacts, including binary and source code. It's also useful for
managing your entire software supply chain, from development through
production.
Sonatype Nexus has a centralized control over all software assets in your
organization, making it easier to ensure they're up-to-date with the latest
patches and bug fixes. This means less time spent trying to track down outdated
versions of applications across different environments (like staging or
production), which could lead to security vulnerabilities if not updated
regularly enough.
Snyk
Snyk is a
security platform that automates the process of finding and fixing
vulnerabilities in open source projects. It integrates with CI/CD tools, which
means developers don't have to do anything extra to get started. Snyk also
provides an API for custom integrations into your existing workflow if you want
more control over how it works.
Black
Duck Hub
Black Duck
Hub is a tool that helps you find, manage and secure open source software. It
allows you to track license compliance, identify security vulnerabilities and
make sure your projects are free from copyright infringements.
