Abstract
Security starts from planning to deployment, maintenance of applications live in production environments. The buzzword “DevOps” has made the IT world to move towards more skills, automation and tools. So developers are moving ahead with technologies like containers, micro services etc. The key part is to understand about where the applications are hosted and served to end users securely. So “DevSecOps” means everyone is responsible for security. We will see what developers need to know about operations and security while building applications.
