DevSecOps Consulting

DevSecOps means running security controls as a routine part of the software delivery pipeline and of operations, automated as far as possible. We build code, dependency and container scanning, secrets management (passwords, API keys, certificates and other confidential access credentials) and cloud configuration checks into your delivery process, so that findings are seen and tracked during development.

When you need it

When does DevSecOps come into play?

The earlier a security finding is seen, the easier it is to fix. That is why we bring controls closer to the start of the development process and into it.

  • Security testing is done in one batch before release. Seeing findings earlier and in smaller pieces makes it easier to keep to the release schedule.
  • Passwords and keys are kept in different places. Passwords and access keys need to be managed in a central vault, with access tracked and credentials rotated regularly.
  • Impact analysis takes time when a new vulnerability is announced. An up-to-date inventory (SBOM) showing which component versions run in which application shortens that time.
  • Cloud accounts have grown over time. Permissions, network rules and logging settings need to be reviewed against a standard.
  • Preparing evidence for audits and customer questions takes time. When controls run automatically and their results are retained, evidence becomes a by-product of daily work.
  • Enterprise customers ask what is inside your software. Being able to document the open-source components you use and their security status is increasingly expected.
Scope

What do we do as part of DevSecOps?

From development to operations, the areas that make security controls automated and measurable.

Delivery pipeline security

Static code analysis (SAST) and dependency scanning (SCA) on every change, scheduled dynamic testing (DAST); findings in the developer's own tools.

Container and IaC security

Scanning and signing images and verifying signatures at deployment; catching misconfigurations in Terraform and Kubernetes before release.

Secrets and access management

Moving passwords and keys into a central vault, rotating them regularly and automatically, and designing access around the principle of least privilege.

Cloud security configuration

Reviewing account and network architecture, hardening against CIS Benchmarks and continuous configuration auditing.

Software supply chain security

A component inventory (SBOM) for every release, signed releases and build provenance records based on the SLSA framework.

Monitoring and incident response

Security log collection, meaningful alerts and runtime monitoring; incident response steps written up as runbooks.

Process

High risks first, then automation.

We address the highest-risk areas first, then automate the controls and build them into your team's daily work. We decide together with you which findings should block a release.

What do we take into account?

We design controls by mapping them to recognized frameworks:

  • OWASP SAMM maturity model
  • NIST SSDF (SP 800-218) secure software development framework
  • SLSA software supply chain levels
  • OWASP Top 10 and ASVS
  • CIS Benchmarks hardening guides

Risk and current-state analysis

We review your delivery pipeline, cloud accounts, access rights and existing security tools.

Output: Prioritized risk list and a baseline of existing findings
2

Priority fixes

We address high-priority findings such as exposed secrets, overly broad permissions and internet-facing resources.

Output: Remediation and verification status of priority findings
3

Building controls into the pipeline

We add scans, policies and quality gates to the pipelines and filter out unnecessary alerts.

Output: Automated security controls
4

Monitoring and response

We put security logs, alerts and incident response steps into operation.

Output: Alert rules, runbooks
5

Continuous improvement

We report on findings regularly, track trends and provide secure development training for your team.

Output: Reports and training
Deliverables

What you have at the end of a DevSecOps engagement.

Who it is for

Getting started with secure delivery at your scale.

SMEs and small software teams

Work starts with secrets management, dependency scanning and basic cloud hardening; the aim is high impact with few tools.

Teams selling to enterprise customers

Preparing for customer security questions and audits with SBOMs, signed releases and pipelines that produce evidence.

Enterprise IT and security teams

Connecting existing security tools to the delivery pipeline, policy as code and shared standards across teams.

Before we start

Making the first meeting productive.

None of these is a prerequisite; whatever you have makes the first conversation more concrete.

What you can prepare, if available

  • A list of code repositories and pipelines
  • A list of cloud accounts and environments
  • Security tools in use and recent scan results, if any
  • Your most critical applications and the types of data they process
  • Security requirements arising from audits or customers

About DevSecOps

References and standards

DevOps speeds up how software is built and released to production through automation and shared responsibility. DevSecOps adds security controls to that process: scans, policy checks and secrets management run inside the delivery pipeline. To set up the delivery pipeline itself, see our DevOps consulting service.

No, the two complement each other. DevSecOps controls run automatically on every change; penetration testing is a periodic test carried out by specialists within a defined scope. We offer penetration testing as part of information security consulting.

The setup is designed with that in mind: fast checks such as secret, dependency and static code scans run on every change, while longer ones such as dynamic tests and full image scans run in parallel or on a schedule. We decide together with you which finding severities should block a release.

An SBOM (software bill of materials) is an inventory of the components inside an application and their versions; on its own, it does not tell you whether a release is secure. When the inventory is continuously matched against vulnerability databases, you can quickly find which applications are affected when a new vulnerability is announced. Enterprise customers request SBOMs more and more often, and generating them can usually be added to your existing pipeline.

We first run scans in observation mode, review the findings with your team and create a baseline of existing findings. That way, findings introduced by new changes stand out on their own; invalid ones are marked with a justification, and alerts stay meaningful.

Yes. We first assess the tools you have and connect them to the delivery pipeline; we recommend additional tools only where there are gaps.

For critical applications and new architectures, yes: at the design stage, we map out data flows and possible attack paths together with your team and prioritize controls accordingly.

We provide 24/7 monitoring and incident response under a managed services agreement, for the systems defined in that agreement. Scope and response times are set out in the agreement.

It produces a significant share of the technical controls and evidence. The management system, risk assessment and certification readiness are covered by information security consulting; the certificate is issued by an accredited certification body.
