Example: When people off-boarded (left the org) in the old days, they took a paper checklist with them as they visited all the departments providing in-house services.

The Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) outlines the journey of projects from the planning and design stages all the way through to coding, testing, and final deployment. As cyber threats evolve, they become more sophisticated and targeted. As a result, it's no longer enough for software to just "work." It needs to be resilient and secure. Security testing, therefore, isn't just a best practice—it's a necessity. For many practitioners, security was always meant to be part of DevOps. Instead of happening at the end of the SDLC, DevOps security starts at the source: Code. This approach is co ..read more
