It’s the age of DevOps, and we all want to shift left, which refers to the idea of performing processes earlier in the CI/CD cycle. That includes security checks and audits. By starting security operations earlier in the delivery pipeline, it becomes easier to find problems, and teams have more time to address them before […]
Tech Pros: Plan for Failure to Breed Success
Veteran tech pros will tell you: Failure does not always mean failing at something; it often means failing to do something. Failure can be unpredictable and accidental, but usually, a lack of preparedness causes the most significant incidents. Data centers go down, huge bursts of bot activity generate too many requests for a network to […]
Embedding Accessibility into the DevOps Process
Calls for accessibility and inclusion are a defining characteristic of current times. Persons with disabilities (PwD), including vision, hearing, cognitive and physical impairments and others, are demanding equal access to virtually all public services and forums they interact with, from transportation to banking and self-service terminals in airports—and increasingly, digital (web and mobile) services. Ensuring […]
How to Design DevSecOps Compliance Processes to Free Up Developer Resources

No developer wants to create inoperable or insecure code. We know that most […]
Don’t Forget to Automate Cloud Security
Cloud has been around long enough, and we’ve had enough breaches stemming from unsecured cloud (mostly data objects, but other items, too) that we should know better. I cringe whenever I see a security headline along the lines of “… Unsecured S3 Bucket.” Would you publicly expose a server in your data center and not […]

First-Time Quality for Software on a Blockchain Network
There is probably more trust in the world today than at any other point in history—not necessarily by choice, but because of our use of software to carry out almost every type of transaction. The use of blockchain networks brings visibility to those networks of transactions: Information about an asset that was once held by […]
Continuous Testing: Shift Left and Find the Right Balance
You may have heard the term “continuous testing,” but are struggling to understand what it is and how to achieve it. Project teams need to improve their ability to test and perform test automation when needed, not just when possible. Service virtualization allows teams to test earlier and more often in the life cycle, or […]
