Another RSA Conference has come and gone, but not without imparting the wisdom of its attendees who took part in Traceable AI's second annual survey ... The results from this year's survey portrayed a clear message: organizations are struggling to keep up with the continuously evolving challenges of API security ...
Are Kubernetes certifications the right thing for you? Maybe certifications are just worthless pieces of paper with a high price tag and hours of studying things you will never practically use on the job ...
If you listen to thought leaders, QA is in its death throes. It's useless, it's expensive, and besides, we have machines to do that now. In my own experience, I've been working in organizations without dedicated QA teams for several years ... The transformation I'm talking about is where quality assurance has moved from a separate, final stage of development to one at the core of software creation, where every developer is expected to tear down their own code to build a better product. And if you're not on board with this shift yet, I have bad news for you ...
You've probably felt the pressure to deploy faster, scale quicker, and innovate constantly. It's exhilarating, but it can also be terrifying. What if a misconfiguration exposes your entire infrastructure? What if a secret gets leaked in a log file? Despite concerns, container security can actually reduce your attack surface, not expand it, and help lock down your containerized applications without sacrificing the agility that drew you to containers in the first place ...
Cyberattacks are becoming much more sophisticated and frequent, leaving organizations constantly pressured to prioritize security at every stage of software development ... To counter these threats, one solution is for DevSecOps to embrace "shift-left" testing — a practice that involves moving testing earlier in the software development lifecycle ...
Development velocity is a standard KPI in software development, while QA velocity is rarely measured. Even with regulatory and compliance demands, DevOps methodologies, and the shifting left of numerous software testing functions, quality assurance topics (like performance, usability, security, and dependability) continue to be an afterthought in 2024 ...
If you're stepping into edge AI development, let me share some things you'll run into early on. Transitioning AI models from desktop environments to edge devices isn't as straightforward as it might seem. The edge brings unique challenges that demand a different mindset, and the sooner you're aware of them, the better prepared you'll be ...
Platform Engineering is not new. However, as API management becomes more critical and complicated, connecting the world, platform engineering is also evolving to be a vital component of modern digital business. API developers play a crucial role in creating, managing, and scaling APIs to meet the demands of their organizations and customers. What should developers understand about the current state of platform engineering? ...
The significance of video in driving engagement, building brand loyalty, increasing online sales, and delivering substantial ROI is widely acknowledged ... However, capitalizing on video content at scale presents a significant operational challenge, particularly for technical teams ...
As technology rapidly advances, IT pros are increasingly saddled with technical debt ... But what exactly is technical debt? In essence, it is the cost incurred by opting for quick fixes over comprehensive solutions in software development. Some IT leaders see generative AI (GenAI) as a solution to quickly code their way out of these legacy IT headaches, but more code is not the answer — in fact, it's what started this problem in the first place ...
With ROI on the line and marketing and developer budgets under scrutiny, streamlined collaboration and efficient processes between teams remains paramount ... So, how can decision-makers at the enterprise level help internal teams drive better collaboration, align on business goals, and build stronger partnerships? ...
In certain developer circles right now, the sense of doom is palpable. For many, the writing seems to be on the wall. The question is not if but when AI will render their professions wholly irrelevant ... It seems like a tragedy. Luckily, it's also a fantasy ...
Patrick Debois, the godfather of DevOps, once tweeted: "DevOps is about removing the friction between silos. All the rest is engineering." His idea, which grew into DevSecOps, integrates developers, IT operations, quality assurance, and InfoSec teams' security approaches in the software development lifecycle (SDLC), helping to address vulnerabilities proactively rather than discover them later in the game ...
To better facilitate the secure development of software built and bought by federal agencies, the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) and Office of Management and Budget (OMB) created the Secure Software Development Attestation form ... While the time to fill out the Secure Software Attestation Form has come and gone for critical software and around the corner for all software, a recent survey from Lineaje, conducted a month before the June deadline, revealed significant gaps in software producers' preparedness and awareness ...
Artistic swimming, formerly known as synchronized swimming or water ballet, seems like it should be nearly impossible for humans: a synchronized, choreographed routine, accompanied by music, involving many people who are often fully or partially submerged under water ... Sound familiar? That's the ideal product development lifecycle as well ...
