For Federal, State and Local agencies to take full advantage of the agility and responsiveness of a DevOps approach to the software lifecycle, Security must also play an integral role across lifecycle stages. Modern DevOps permits high velocity development cycles resulting in weekly, daily, or even hourly software releases.
