What You’ll Learn in This Webinar
As organizations move to a Cloud-Native strategy, their conventional approach to software development, delivery, and deployment just won’t fit. DevOps is required to successfully transition to cloud-native developments, and without it, your approach will likely experience serious shortcomings. While the traditional idea of a software release dissolves into a continuous cycle of service and delivery improvements, organizations find that their conventional approaches to “software security” are having a difficult time adapting to a Cloud-Native strategy. Security has continued to be viewed as an inhibitor to this new model, but it doesn’t have to be that way.
Join Stephen and Kelly in this session to:- Discover why AST solutions must be capable of being entirely automated within the Cloud-Native tooling that’s already in use.
- Learn how to ensure vulnerabilities in custom code, open source, and run-time risks are identified and remediated early within Cloud-Native architectures, without adding interruption.
- Understand the hurdles you’ll face when attempting to integrate security testing in Cloud-Native initiatives and how best to manage every expectation.
