This presentation explores the evolution of DevOps from its origins as a development-focused practice to its vital role in today’s complex software supply chain. Initially centered on code deployment and integration, DevOps now encompasses proactive vulnerability prevention, remediation, and broader GRC (Governance, Risk, and Compliance) efforts. Developers are no longer just stopping threats—they’re shaping policies, establishing secure infrastructure, and implementing best practices to reduce overall organizational risk. Discover how DevOps has grown into a comprehensive strategy for managing security, compliance, and risk, driving organizations toward a more resilient and forward-thinking software ecosystem.
