(IT482) READ THE PROMPT BELOW AND WRITE A 3-PARAGRAPH INITIAL DISCUSSION POST ANSWERING THE QUESTION(S) BELOW

As organizations continue to adopt agile ways for infrastructure and application delivery to support their business objectives, it is essential that IT leaders consider security as a critical component. Security is increasingly becoming the responsibility of engineering, development, and operations teams. However, in some organizations, security teams become barriers to getting things done efficiently; audits and compliance are considered just drills that developers have to deal with on a regular basis. These security teams often frustrate DevOps team, and create a divide between developers and controllers and auditors.

In this week’s discussion, address the following questions in your initial post:

• What are some security concerns IT managers should consider as they champion agile/DevOps delivery methodologies?
• In what ways might the four governance models look different under a DevOps methodology from more traditional approaches to IT?
• How can security be incorporated into the DevOps delivery life cycle?
• How does the adoption of agile and DevOps impact business continuity planning and execution?
