How To Use DevOps Principles to Make Your SecOps Team More Productive & Happier

Information security compliance teams play an increasingly important role in the growth of their companies. Depending on its target market, a company might need to maintain multiple security credentials (e.g. SOC 2 Type 2, HIPAA, PCI, ISO 27001, etc.) in order to be considered as a viable business partner for an enterprise. Security compliance professionals are the ones that lead the charge on this work. But with ever-increasing demands on their time, and shorter timelines to deliver results, these teams need to rethink their approach. By deploying tested principles from the world of DevOps, security assurance teams can increase the scope of their role - from focusing on regulatory compliance to leading the charge on strategic security risk management. They can help their organizations avoid losses due to operational disruptions, security incidents, lawsuits, and other crises, help their organizations efficiently stay in compliance with regulatory requirements, and get through audits with fewer man-hours. Learn how an approach we call ComOps (Compliance Operations) applies the lessons learned in the world of software development to produce better security and compliance outcomes - and results in higher job satisfaction for overworked professionals in these key roles.
