The Certified DevSecOps Engineer training program is designed for professionals seeking to master the intersection of development, security, and operations. In today’s digital landscape, organizations are rapidly adopting DevSecOps practices to integrate security throughout the software development lifecycle (SDLC). This course provides hands-on training on securing CI/CD pipelines, managing vulnerabilities, implementing security testing, and automating compliance—empowering you to deliver secure software at speed and scale.
Whether you're a DevOps engineer, security analyst, cloud architect, or developer, this certification equips you with the knowledge and tools to embed security into every phase of DevOps workflows. With increasing cyber threats and strict compliance demands, skilled DevSecOps engineers are becoming vital to every modern enterprise. This training ensures you're ready to lead secure digital transformation efforts across hybrid and cloud-native environments.
Cybersecurity is no longer optional—it's an integral part of software delivery. Traditional security models are too slow for the pace of modern DevOps. That’s where DevSecOps comes in, bringing security into the developer’s world through automation and continuous feedback. The Certified DevSecOps Engineer credential validates your ability to build, test, and deploy secure applications without compromising on agility. It enhances your profile for roles in secure DevOps, cloud security, and compliance engineering, opening doors to high-paying job opportunities and leadership positions in top tech companies.
As a certified engineer, you’ll demonstrate competence in static and dynamic analysis tools, secrets management, container security, threat modeling, infrastructure-as-code scanning, and integration with CI/CD tools like Jenkins, GitLab CI, and GitHub Actions. The certification is globally recognized and respected by security-conscious organizations aiming to modernize their development practices without risking data or compliance.
In this instructor-led course, you will dive deep into the real-world application of DevSecOps principles. You’ll learn how to automate security at every stage of the pipeline—from code to cloud. Starting with foundational concepts like shift-left security, you will progress to implementing automated SAST, DAST, and container security, as well as cloud-native threat detection. The course also includes use of popular tools like OWASP ZAP, SonarQube, Trivy, Aqua, Snyk, and HashiCorp Vault.
You’ll participate in hands-on labs that simulate real business environments, helping you to build, test, and secure applications in CI/CD workflows. Topics like Kubernetes security, infrastructure as code (IaC) scanning, secret injection, and policy-as-code (OPA) are explored with practical examples. By the end of this course, you will be confident in building end-to-end DevSecOps pipelines in real-world production scenarios.
By the end of the course, you will be able to:
Explore the evolution of DevOps into DevSecOps, and understand the business need for integrated security. Learn about the shift-left mindset, key DevSecOps metrics, and the cultural changes required for successful adoption.
Gain insights into modern DevSecOps architecture. Understand how to architect secure CI/CD pipelines and integrate security checkpoints into Agile processes using tools and automation.
Learn how to embed SAST (Static Application Security Testing) and DAST (Dynamic Application Security Testing) into pipelines. Master integration of tools like SonarQube, OWASP ZAP, Snyk, Checkmarx, and more within Jenkins, GitHub, or GitLab.
Understand the risks associated with containers. Learn to scan Docker images, manage secrets, implement RBAC, and apply Kubernetes security best practices using tools like Trivy, Aqua, and kube-bench.
Secure cloud-native workloads using AWS best practices. Automate compliance checks using CIS Benchmarks and Open Policy Agent (OPA). Explore how DevSecOps simplifies compliance audits and incident response.
Learn to identify and mitigate threats using STRIDE, PASTA, and Mitre ATT&CK frameworks. Understand how to document threats and create remediation plans using threat modeling tools.
