Course Description
The PeopleCert DevSecOps Foundation course is a comprehensive online training program designed for software developers, DevOps engineers, security engineers, cloud engineers, system administrators, IT operations professionals, application security specialists, release managers, quality assurance professionals, and technology leaders who want to integrate security into every stage of the software development lifecycle. This course provides participants with a strong foundation in DevSecOps principles, culture, processes, and automation, enabling organizations to build secure, reliable, and compliant applications while accelerating software delivery. Learners will explore the integration of security into Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) pipelines, Infrastructure as Code (IaC), cloud-native development, container security, Kubernetes security, vulnerability management, threat modeling, secure coding practices, software composition analysis, secrets management, compliance automation, and security monitoring. The curriculum also covers DevSecOps governance, risk management, identity and access management, API security, application security testing, cloud security, supply chain security, Security as Code, incident response, observability, and continuous security improvement. Participants will gain practical knowledge of implementing automated security controls, reducing vulnerabilities, strengthening software quality, and improving collaboration among development, security, and operations teams. Real-world implementation scenarios, enterprise case studies, and hands-on workshops reinforce best practices for securing modern applications and infrastructure across on-premises, hybrid, and cloud environments. Upon completion, learners will possess the practical knowledge and skills required to implement DevSecOps practices successfully and prepare confidently for the PeopleCert DevSecOps Foundation certification examination
