Keep It Contained Ep. 3: CI/CD for Security Teams

CI/CD pipelines are where modern software gets built and shipped, but for security teams, they're also one of the biggest untapped opportunities to catch problems early instead of reacting after the fact. In this episode of Keep It Contained, we break down: • What CI/CD actually means and why constant, incremental change makes security automation essential • The three key stages where security can be injected • Real-world example: how a scanner caught leaked temporary credentials baked into a container image • SAST, DAST, and vulnerability scanning: what they catch and where they fit in the pipeline • How to weigh the cost of a security check against how frequently you can run it • Where automation should stop and human judgment should take over • How security teams can build trust with developers instead of being seen as the "headmaster" The shift isn't just about adding more scans. It's about moving security left, cutting down alert fatigue, and giving security teams the time back to focus on the issues that actually matter.
