According to Jim Bird, it is a list of security techniques that should be included in every software development project. I spoke with him about the evolution of the project and how he envisions it being used by the OWASP community, and specifically by developers.

Security as Part of DevOps and Development with Jason Schmitt

The inclusion of security as an integral piece of the DevOps puzzle continues to gain traction. In this episode of the DevSecOps Days Podcast Series, I speak with Curtis Yanko and Scott McCarty about their new book, "A Concise Introduction to DevSecOps". We discuss why they wrote the book, who the audience is that will benefit from it and why enterprises should be considering security as part of the software development environment.
