DevOps for Better Software Security in the Cloud

The DevOps model ensures that the organization's growth and processes are work together. As far as security is concerned, DevOps security tools are significant in relaying information on external attackers which can be traced back to development, allowing for quicker elimination of potential vulnerabilities. It is a process that is particularly critical in cloud deployments, whereby release intervals can be less than24 hours. This paper will explore how DevOps can be used in cloud solutions to increase the overall security of systems and applications. DevOps delivers improved automation across the product delivery chain, prevents errors, nullifies risk and downtime, and enables security to be further integrated into the cloud environment. The paper covers the main facets of DevOps in securing cloud solutions with examples provided on practical applications by companies like IBM. The significance of the research to the U.S is also covered especially for organizations looking to secure their serverless systems
