Once again this year, I was fortunate to be a contributor to Puppet’s State of DevOps Report. Working on this report is always enlightening, and I’ve used this research over the last eight years to learn about the state of the industry, what works in practice, and where organizations are stalling out and having issues.
This year’s theme was security, and integrating it into DevOps practices. We asked thousands of participants about the role security has played in their ability to deliver software. The participants fit a wide variety of demographics, including a significant sample of folks in the computer security space, whether on security teams, in security management, or other security roles.
