WHY STUDY THIS COURSE

We have all heard about DevSecOps, Shifting Left, and Rugged DevOps but there are no clear examples or frameworks available for security professionals to implement in their organization.
T his hands-on course will teach you exactly that – tools and techniques to embed security as part of the DevOps pipeline. We will learn how unicorns like Google, Facebook, Amazon, and Etsy handle security at scale and what we can learn from them to mature our security programs. In our advanced DevSecOps Expert training, you will learn how to handle security at scale using DevSecOps practices. We will start off with the basics of DevOps and DevSecOps, then move towards advanced concepts such as threat Modelling as Code, RASP/IAST, Container Security, Secrets Management, and more. This self- paced course will provide you with:

My instructor was great being able to put scenarios into real world instances that related to my specific situation. I was made to feel welcome from the moment I arrived and the ability to sit as a group outside the classroom to discuss our situations and our goals was extremely valuable. I learnt a lot and felt it was important that my goals by attending this course were met. Great job Lumify Work team.
