DevSecOps

At IT-Strat, we understand that security is a critical consideration in any software development project, particularly for government agencies. That’s why we offer DevSecOps transformation services to help our clients integrate security into every stage of the software development lifecycle. Our team of experts has extensive experience in DevSecOps methodologies, including automated testing, continuous integration, and containerization, and we work closely with our clients to develop customized solutions that fit their specific needs and requirements.

By adopting a DevSecOps approach to software development, our clients are able to identify and address potential security risks early on, reducing the overall time and cost of the development process. We provide training and coaching to help our clients make the transition to DevSecOps, and we support them throughout the entire process, from planning and design to development and deployment.

Our DevSecOps transformation services are designed to help our clients achieve greater security, efficiency, and agility in their software development projects, enabling them to achieve their business objectives and stay ahead of the curve.


Benefits

At IT-Strat, we believe that implementing a DevSecOps transformation is critical for federal agencies looking to streamline their software development processes, while also ensuring the security of sensitive data. Our team of experts has extensive experience in creating DevSecOps frameworks that meet the specific needs of government agencies.

Our DevSecOps framework involves integrating security practices and testing into each stage of the software development life-cycle, from planning and coding to testing and deployment. This means security is not an afterthought, but is instead integrated into the entire process from the beginning. To achieve this, we use a combination of automated testing, continuous integration and delivery, and real-time monitoring to provide visibility into the entire software development life-cycle.

This approach ensures vulnerabilities are identified and addressed early on, reducing the risk of security breaches and increasing security posture.


6-Pillar Framework

Security-first approach:
We prioritize security from the outset. This means that security is not an afterthought, but is instead integrated into the entire process from the beginning.

Automated testing:
We incorporate automated testing throughout the software development life-cycle. This includes static analysis, dynamic analysis, and interactive application security testing (IAST). The goal is to identify and address vulnerabilities early in the development process.

Continuous integration and delivery (CI/CD) integrated with AI/ML:
Our framework uses an advanced AI/ML based CI/CD pipeline to streamline the software development process. With AI/ML-based CI/CD, developers can use machine learning algorithms to optimize the code review process and identify potential issues before they occur. This includes identifying coding errors, security vulnerabilities, and performance issues. We use machine learning algorithms to analyze data from previous software releases to identify trends and make predictions about potential issues in future releases. Additionally, AI/ML-based CI/CD will improve the efficiency of the testing process. By automating testing and utilizing machine learning algorithms to optimize the testing process, developers can reduce the time and resources required for testing, while also improving the accuracy of the tests. Our framework brings benefits that can improve the accuracy of the release process. Our machine learning algorithms can be used to analyze data from previous releases and identify patterns and trends in the software development process. This helps developers make more informed decisions about when to release new versions of their software.

Real-time monitoring:
Our real-time monitoring provides visibility into the entire software development lifecycle. This includes monitoring code repositories, containers, and cloud infrastructure for potential security threats.

Collaboration and communication:
Our DevSecOps framework prioritizes collaboration and communication between development, security, and operations teams. This involves breaking down silos and ensuring everyone is working together towards a common goal. We prioritize collaboration and communication between development, security, and operations teams to ensure that everyone is working together towards a common goal. This includes training and support for implementing DevSecOps practices, as well as coaching on agile methodologies and tools to automate the software development process.

Continuous improvement:
Our DevSecOps framework is continuously evaluated and improved. This involves collecting data on performance and security metrics, analyzing the data, and using the insights gained to optimize the software development process.

Our framework has helped federal agencies achieve greater efficiency and reduce costs by streamlining the software development process. It has also improved security by ensuring that security measures are integrated throughout the development life-cycle.
