DevSecOps Engineering (DSOE)℠ Certification

This course teaches practical steps on how to implement security, shift security left and highlights the importance of organizational transformation for a successful DevSecOps environment. The purpose of this course and its associated exam is to inform, test and validate knowledge of DevSecOps vocabulary, principles, practices, automation and value.
DevSecOps incorporates security into the continuous delivery style of the DevOps methodology. It promotes 'security as code', with the intent to have security considerations and testing incorporated into the general development process. By regularly assessing code with security in mind, users can reduce the likelihood of flaws going unnoticed. This solution is also significantly faster than traditional end-of-project approaches. As a result, the DevSecOps solution can guarantee greater ROIs, as well as tighter protection for both practitioner organizations and their customers.
This course offers a firm grasp of the practices, benefits and vocabulary of DevSecOps. Students will learn how the specialized methodology fits into wider DevOps cultures, enabling them to bring major security benefits to their organizations.
Students will look at DevSecOps in the context of organizational transformation. The methodology iterates how incorporating security considerations into the entire code development lifecycle is essential for guaranteeing their effectiveness. This approach also promotes flexible and ongoing collaboration between security staff and other DevOps team members, encouraging shared responsibility that helps to ensure superior results.
