Automation is a key component of DevSecOps because it increases efficiency. Automating work in your software development lifecycle helps you integrate multiple tools into your workflow. It also lets developers, maintainers, and security champions focus on coming up with creative solutions for tough problems, rather than spending time on tedious manual tasks.
On the heels of our significant growth investment from TA Associates, we are pleased to announce our acquisition of auto-remediation technology from Jaroona. Jaroona’s intelligent remediation technology accelerates Veracode’s vision and strategy to automatically detect and remediate software vulnerabilities. Jaroona was recognized as a Gartner Inc. 2021 Cool Vendor for DevSecOps.
In the previous article about the coding process, we covered developers using secure coding practices and how to secure the central code repository that represents the single source of truth. After coding is complete, developers move to the build and test processes of the Continuous Integration (CI) phase. These processes use automation to compile code and test it for errors, vulnerabilities, license conformity, unexpected behavior, and of course bugs in the application.
