Speed and automation is the key for DevOps, and with the increasing adoption of shifting security left, delivering secured software applications has become the responsibility of DevSecOps teams. However, they are rarely experts, especially when it comes to PKI (Public Key Infrastructure). Some of the key challenges facing DevSecOps teams include:
Slow and manual issuance of SSL / TLS certificates
Secrets Management
The needs for a a hosted Private CA for production deployments
Using non-compliant certificates to secure CI/CD pipelines and Kubernetes Clusters
Lack of visibility and control over certificate issuance across the tool stack
No tool for Certificate Management
Using Digital Identity Services to Overcome DevSecOps Challenges
