Security in DevOps means protecting applications, source code, CI/CD pipelines, and infrastructure throughout the software development process. Security is integrated into every stage instead of being added only at the end.
Teams use tools to scan code, detect vulnerabilities, manage secrets, control access, and monitor applications during development and deployment. This helps identify and fix security issues early.
In simple words, security in DevOps means building secure software by making security part of the entire DevOps process.
