Abstract

The software development lifecycle has changed a lot and continues to evolve. Almost every company now is a software company.  Meeting business needs and adapting to the speed of the market for new features requires an agility mindset and continuous-delivery techniques throughout application-development lifecycles. 

You have software development and deployment questions, such as: Where do I start? How do I establish good continuous integration/deployment practices? What about security? 

Hasan has the answers! SEI’s Hasan Yasar hosts a software development question and answer session.

What attendees will learn:
• how DevSecOps and Agile are generating more and more questions in DoD environments 
• where software development is heading
• continuous-delivery techniques throughout application-development lifecycles
• why constant interaction between developers and information security teams is needed throughout the entire SDLC
