A developer pushed code. No security scan. Three weeks later, a £2M breach. Fix this. DevSecOps engineers make that scenario impossible. They embed security into every stage of the software pipeline — so vulnerabilities get caught in seconds, not weeks. And they're some of the highest-paid professionals in cybersecurity: £70–90K UK, $119–177K US, with a market growing 24% year on year. I'm a CISO. This is the complete, phase-by-phase blueprint to become a DevSecOps engineer from scratch. Foundations, CI/CD pipeline security, container and Kubernetes hardening, threat modelling, developer security training, certifications, portfolio projects, and how to get hired. Every tool mentioned is free and open source. Total cost: £350–£1,000. If you can secure a pipeline, you can get a job. This video shows you how to do both. 📌 PHASE 1 — FOUNDATIONS (FREE): 🐍 Automate the Boring Stuff with Python — https://automatetheboringstuff.com 🎓 Professor Messer Security+ SY0-701 — Free on YouTube 🔟 OWASP Top 10 — https://owasp.org/www-project-top-ten 🐧 KillerCoda (Docker, Kubernetes, Linux labs) — https://killercoda.com ☁️ AWS Free Tier — https://aws.amazon.com/free 🐳 Docker Getting Started — https://docs.docker.com/get-started 📌 PHASE 2 — PIPELINE SECURITY TOOLS (ALL FREE): 🔍 SonarQube Community Edition (SAST) — https://sonarqube.org 🔍 Semgrep (SAST) — https://semgrep.dev 📦 Snyk Free Tier (SCA + containers) — https://snyk.io 📦 OWASP Dependency-Check (SCA) — https://owasp.org 🌐 OWASP ZAP (DAST) — https://zaproxy.org 🔑 GitLeaks (secrets detection) — https://github.com/gitleaks/gitleaks 🔑 Trufflehog (secrets detection) — https://github.com/trufflesecurity/trufflehog 📐 OWASP Threat Modelling Playbook — https://owasp.org 📐 Microsoft Threat Modelling Tool — Free download 📌 PHASE 3 — CONTAINER & KUBERNETES SECURITY (FREE): 🛡️ Trivy (container + IaC scanner) — https://trivy.dev 🛡️ Falco (runtime security) — https://falco.org 🛡️ Kyverno (Kubernetes policy engine) — https://kyverno.io 🔐 HashiCorp Vault (secrets management) — https://vaultproject.io 🛡️ Checkov (IaC security scanner) — https://checkov.io 📋 OWASP Kubernetes Top 10 — https://owasp.org 📌 CERTIFICATIONS: 🏆 CompTIA Security+ — https://comptia.org (~£350) 🏆 Certified DevSecOps Professional (CDP) — https://practical-devsecops.com (~£600) 🏆 CKS (Certified Kubernetes Security Specialist) — https://training.linuxfoundation.org 📺 COMPLETE CYBERSECURITY CAREER BLUEPRINT SERIES: ▶️ SOC Analyst Blueprint — https://youtu.be/X_fo_9YeXBU ▶️ GRC Analyst Blueprint — https://youtu.be/Leg72_cyrXE ▶️ Cloud Security Engineer Blueprint — https://youtu.be/0AYFGYf6dSA ▶️ Ethical Hacker / Penetration Tester Blueprint — https://youtu.be/zfDBpTJAui8 ▶️ How to Secure AI — https://youtu.be/XUULNGFXyK4 ▶️ Cybersecurity Interview Masterclass — https://youtu.be/zcmFUdsq8N4 ▶️ Why You're Not Getting Hired in Cybersecurity — https://youtu.be/Vb6jxCGu-4Y 🎙️ YouTube — @mpcybersecurity 💬 DROP A COMMENT: What's your starting point — DevOps, security, or development?
