In our digital-first world, security isn’t just important — it’s non-negotiable, especially within DevOps environments. Yes, DevOps brilliantly accelerates development by bridging the gap between development and operations teams. But here’s the catch: that impressive speed sometimes races past essential security checkpoints. That’s why weaving threat modeling directly into your DevOps workflow isn’t just smart — it’s necessary to spot and neutralize security threats before they become problems.
IBM’s 2024 Cost of a Data Breach report demonstrates that the global average cost of a data breach in 2024 is 4.88M USD, which is a 10% increase over last year and the highest total ever. What do these eye-opening statistics tell us? Simple: weaving security into your DevOps isn’t optional — it’s critical. Beyond just shielding you from devastating data breaches, DevSecOps actually turbocharges your development cycle, trims unnecessary spending, and takes your product quality to new heights.
