DevSecOps is a core service that TekFive provides. We have the ability and track record of enhancing organizations ability to build, test, and deploy software quickly and securely using modern DevSecOps practices. By integrating security throughout the development lifecycle, we can help you catch vulnerabilities early and minimizing risks without delaying progress. Our automated and collaborative approach unites teams to deliver efficient, compliant solutions, empowering businesses to innovate with confidence and adapt to changing threats and markets.
What Is DevSecOps?
DevOps is widely recognized as a blend of practices and tools that promote continuous collaboration between software engineering and infrastructure teams. This collaboration enables the automation of swift and dependable application and service delivery across organizations. Key focus areas of DevOps include automated provisioning, continuous integration, continuous monitoring, and test-driven development.
Building on the DevOps philosophy, DevSecOps services integrate security controls and processes into the DevOps workflow, automating essential security tasks. These DevSecOps cybersecurity principles are incorporated from the early stages of development and maintained throughout the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC).
Beyond equipping DevOps teams with security expertise and practices, DevSecOps services also infuse application development knowledge and processes into security teams to foster effective teamwork.
DevSecOps at Government Agencies
TekFive has provided DevSecOps services for multiple government agencies including NASA, the VA and the U.S. Air Force. Our years of experience on these government projects has taught us that while the government can be an extraordinary and exciting environment to work in, a mission-centric focus can many times present obstacles when trying to introduce new technologies and processes such as DevSecOps.
While not all industry standard DevSecOps solutions and approaches will work at all agencies or government locations, we have a track of record of capitalizing on the ones that do and delivering significant benefit. A common theme across all of our experience is that implementing DevSecOps is as much or more of a people transformation as it is a technology transformation and non-technical problems are often the hardest. We believe our expertise, experience and track record makes us exceptionally qualified to help steer your team through a successful implementation of DevSecOps.
