This presentation will cover the role of DevOps in a rapidly growing environment, introduce CI/CD (Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery) concepts and discuss recent security automation projects which include O365 firewall/proxy whitelisting, Tetration/ACI Application Modeling and Network Access Control with ISE.
This is a great opportunity for security practitioners to learn how they can leverage existing DevOps teams to deliver security services efficiently, as well as understand the pros and cons of popular DevOps tools such as Openshift, Jenkins pipelines, and the use of static code analysis tools such as Checkmarx and SonarQube.
This will be an interactive session, so come with questions and an open mind.
