Shifting Left in Azure: Integrating Security into CI/CD Pipelines

Description

Made with Restream Studio. Livestream on 30+ platforms at once via https://restream.io In today’s cloud-native world, security can no longer sit at the end of the delivery pipeline as a final approval step. Shifting Left in Azure focuses on embedding security directly into the developer workflow, enabling teams to identify and address risks early without slowing down delivery. This session explores how organizations can transition from reactive security practices to proactive, automated protection using Azure and GitHub-based tooling. Participants will gain practical insight into implementing automated secret scanning, dependency review, and static application security testing within CI/CD pipelines. The session also covers Infrastructure-as-Code security for Terraform, showing how policy violations and misconfigurations can be detected before any resources are deployed. By the end of the session, attendees will leave with a clear, actionable understanding of how to design secure-by-default pipelines that empower developers, improve security posture, and align with modern DevSecOps best practices.
