DevSecOps Library info:
This library contains list of tools and methodologies accompanied with resources. The main goal is provide to the engineers guide trough opensource DevSecOps tooling. This repository covers only cyber security in cloud and DevSecOps scope.
- Defintition
- Tooling
- Precommit and threat modeling
- SAST
- DAST
- Supply chain and dependencies
- Infrastructure as code
- Containers security

- License
DevSecOps fosuses on security automation, testing and enforcement during DevOps - Release - SDLC cycles. The whole meaning behind this methodology is connecting together Development, Security and Operations. DevSecOps is methodology providing diffeent methods, techniess and processes backed mainly with tooling focusing on developer / secuirty experience.
DevSecOps takes care that security is part of every stage of DevOps loop - Plan, Code, Build, Test, Release, Deploy, Operate, Monitor.
Various definitions:
- https://www.redhat.com/en/topics/devops/what-is-devsecops
- https://www.ibm.com/cloud/learn/devsecops
- https://snyk.io/series/devsecops/
- https://www.synopsys.com/glossary/what-is-devsecops.html
In this section you can find lifecycle helpers, precommit hook tools and threat modeling tools. Threat modeling tools are specific category by themselves allowing you simulate and dicover potential gaps before you start to develop the software or during the process.
Modern DevSecOps tools allow to use Threat modeling as code or generation of threat models based on the existing code annotations.

Dependecny security testing and analysis is very important part of disocvering supply chain attacks. SBOM creation and following depenceny scanning (Software composition analysis) is critical part of Continuous integration. Data series and data trends tracking should be part of CI tooling. You need to know what you produce and what you consume in context of libraries and packages.

OWASP curated list of SAST tools : https://owasp.org/www-community/Source_Code_Analysis_Tools
Dynamic application security testing (DAST) is a type of application testing (in most cases web) that checks your application from the outside by active communication and analysis of the responses based on injected inputs. DAST tools rely on inputs and outputs to operate. A DAST tool uses these to check for security problems while the software is actually running and is actively deploed on the server (or serverless function).

Policy as code is the idea of writing code in a high-level language to manage and automate policies. By representing policies as code in text files, proven software development best practices can be adopted such as version control, automated testing, and automated deployment.
