Guest Blog by Daniel Parmenvik – CEO of bytesafe.dev For many, Software Bill of Materials (SBOMs) have changed from a manual list of assets for due diligence procedures to become an integral and automated part of software development. The ever increasing appetite for open-source software translates into a need to keep track of software assets (or open-source dependencies) for all applications, at any given point in time.
Today we make RKVST available for public use with a free access tier so you can discover what a Zero Trust Fabric can do for you. From tracking software supply chain lifecycles to nuclear waste, RKVST is a powerful tool that builds trust in multi-party processes, when it’s critical to have high assurance in data for confident decisions. But before going all the way you can start simple: tracking software releases and contents with SBOMs.
Not long ago, developers built applications with little awareness about security and compliance. Checking for vulnerabilities, misconfigurations and policy violations wasn’t their job. After creating a fully-functional application, they’d throw it over the proverbial fence, and a security team would evaluate it at some point – or maybe never. Those days are gone – due to three main shifts.
ITOps, SecOps, and DevOps may sound similar. Indeed, they are similar - to a degree. But they have different areas of focus, different histories, and different operational paradigms. Keep reading for an overview of what ITOps, SecOps, and DevOps mean and how they compare. We'll also explain where DevSecOps fits into the conversation - and why you shouldn't worry so much about defining these terms perfectly as you should about finding ways to operationalize collaboration between your various teams.
In application development, security plays an increasingly more prevalent role in protecting infrastructure and data, and ensuring a high level of user trust. Recently, Snykers Vandana Verma Sehgal and DeveloperSteve hosted a panel discussion with seasoned industry experts who shared their insights about exactly when security should be brought into app development.
