Introduction to DevSecOps

Security is often treated as an afterthought. In 'The Hard Way', we treat security as code.

What is Shifting Left?

'Shifting Left' means moving security testing to the earliest possible stage in the development process. Instead of scanning a production server, we scan the code while the developer is writing it.

The Core Pillars:

1. Automation: No manual security checks.
2. Visibility: If you can't monitor it, you can't secure it.
3. Hardening: Minimal attack surfaces.

Your Mission: Throughout this course, you will manage everything via the Terminal. No Web UIs until we reach visualization.
