– Ruchita Varma
Here, we’ll guide you in adopting Shift Left Security and keeping your cloud environment resilient in the face of ever-evolving threats.By shifting these activities to the left—meaning they are conducted earlier in the development process—you can achieve several benefits:
– Early Issue Detection: By performing testing, security scanning and code analysis earlier, you can identify and address issues sooner.To implement a shift left approach,
cloud pipeline components are designed to include automated testing, code analysis, security scanning and other quality checks as part of the development process, starting from the moment code is committed.Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to adopt Shift Left Security in the cloud and
integrate security in DevOps:
Define Security Policies and Standards
– Establish security policies, standards and guidelines for your cloud environment.Leverage Cloud-Native Security Tools
– Cloud service providers (e.g., AWS, Azure, Google Cloud) offer native security tools and services that can help you monitor, detect and respond to threats in your cloud environment.
