While the DevOps methodology supports faster and more automated software production, it does not necessarily guarantee code quality unless specifically required for development teams. At the same time, producing reliable and secure software has become increasingly difficult for organizations. Applications are not only growing in size, they are also becoming more complex and intertwined across platforms, systems and devices. This complicated environment is forcing business executives, IT leaders and software developers to think and work differently to produce quality software at a faster pace – with the goal of increasing their competitive advantage in the digital economy.

Join Maria Loughlin, VP of Engineering at CA Veracode as she discusses why software quality can no longer be a checkbox item, but rather a framework that spans throughout an organization. She will share examples of how enterprises have adopted the mentality to own the success of their code — and develop best practices within the DevOps framework to secure their application layer and produce high-quality software.
