Course Overview

The PeopleCert DevSecOps certification is available through Ellumina. This course is designed for professionals who want to enable their organisation to integrate security across their entire DevOps deployment pipeline. Furthermore, it suits anyone working in software development or IT operations who wants to infuse security strategies and automation into their daily work.

What is DevSecOps?

DevSecOps integrates security-related activities into the daily work of application development and IT operations. Specifically, it builds security into the entire DevOps process across the four pillars of culture, automation, metrics, and sharing — known as CAMS, or CALMS with the addition of Lean. The PeopleCert DevSecOps certification validates your ability to apply these principles in a real DevOps environment. As a result, you become a stronger, more security-conscious contributor across your entire pipeline.

Key goals of DevSecOps

The PeopleCert DevSecOps framework targets the following outcomes:

  • Deliver software rapidly and cost-effectively
  • Encourage a proactive approach to security issues
  • Eliminate silos
  • Promote stronger collaboration between Dev, Sec, and Ops
  • Make everyone more accountable for security
  • Ensure processes are repeatable while also being adaptive

This certification suits a wide range of professionals, including Compliance Teams, Delivery Staff, DevOps Engineers, IT Managers, IT Security Professionals, Maintenance and Support Staff, Managed Service Providers, Project and Product Managers, Quality Assurance Teams, Release Managers, Scrum Masters, Site Reliability Engineers, and Testers.
