Security by Design — Embedding DevSecOps in Federal Cloud Modernization

Secure Development for the Federal Enterprise

Federal modernization programs — from cloud migrations to data analytics — must embed security at every layer. The DevSecOps model, endorsed by DoD Enterprise DevSecOps Reference Design, ensures that security is continuous, automated, and auditable.

Why Federal Agencies Need DevSecOps

• Compliance with federal mandates (e.g., NIST SP 800-53, FedRAMP, FISMA).
• Acceleration of ATO (Authority to Operate) timelines through automation.
• Integration of security scanning in CI/CD pipelines.
• Improved traceability and audit readiness.
