DevSecOps Accelerator
AFour Technologies is a trusted long-term partner to global industry leaders and technology innovators seeking efficient and cutting-edge DevSecOps solutions.
Application development has fundamentally changed as a result of the rise of DevSecOps, which has significantly reduced time-to-release, facilitated cross-functional collaboration, improved application security, and enabled unprecedented agility. The advantages are obvious, but transitioning to a DevSecOps-based development approach – and doing it well – represents a significant challenge to many organizations’ traditional ways of working.
While the benefits will outweigh the costs, in the long run, organizations may face challenges such as code integration, inconsistency across the build and deploy phases, a lack of visibility into quality metrics, and manual quality control. In fact, we’ve discovered that more than 30% of the time is spent on manual work, 25% on unplanned activities, and 36% of released code needs to be reworked.
At AFour Technologies, we ensure that security is built into cloud-based services from the start, through development, production, and decommissioning. Using lightweight, pragmatic approaches that are suitable for continuous delivery, security can be incorporated into agile working practices. Our strategy empowers teams while lowering risk.
Streamlined Security: Achieving the Ultimate Solution with Jenkins Integration
Sequential Task Execution for Unparalleled Efficiency
Supercharging your development and security operations, our robust final solution seamlessly integrates with Jenkins to perform a series of tasks in a well-orchestrated manner. By combining the power of Jenkins and our cutting-edge security measures, we elevate your workflow to new heights of efficiency and protection. This is how our final solution with Jenkins post-integration of Security performs the below tasks serially:
Pre-Commit Hooks
Enhance code quality and security with automated checks before code is committed.
Secret Scanning
Identify and eliminate sensitive information leaks within your codebase.
SCA (Source Composition Analysis)
Analyze and manage open-source dependencies to ensure secure and up-to-date components.
SAST (Static Application Security Testing)
Identify code vulnerabilities early in the development process with static code analysis.
Auto Build Creation and Deployment
Streamline your build and deployment process for faster and more reliable software delivery.
DAST (Dynamic Application Security Testing)
Detect and address security vulnerabilities in your running applications through dynamic testing.
Host Vulnerability Scanning
Identify and remediate vulnerabilities in your infrastructure and network.
Detection of Security Misconfigurations
Identify and rectify misconfigurations that could lead to security breaches or vulnerabilities.
Vulnerability Management
Proactively identify, prioritize, and manage vulnerabilities across your applications and infrastructure.
DevSecOps Pipeline
This is how our target DevSecOps pipeline looks like in reality when it passes through different security checks at each stage of SDLC. This pipeline triggers automatically once a developer makes any changes in the code remotely. We can configure the same per commit or per build basis.

Benefits and Features of our DevSecOps Accelerator
- It reduces costs by minimizing the need to repeat a process to address security issues.
- Both Applications and Infrastructure become less susceptible to security breaches when they are deployed and run in a production environment.
- Greater flexibility in managing sudden changes during the development lifecycle.
- The use of open-source tools in the CI/CD Pipeline makes our solution unique.
- It monitors AWS infrastructures for security alerts and finds misconfigured resources based on industry best practices like CIS, PCI-DSS, and AWS security foundation.
- It aggregates findings from different security tools in a uniform manner which eventually helps in prioritizing the defects.
Features:
- Automation of security checks.
- Continuous monitoring of AWS accounts for security alerts.
- Generates a single consolidated report for all the security findings.
- Customizable through language-specific security tools, regex/rules.
- Cost-effective as most of the tools are opensource
Current Availability of our DevSecOps Accelerator
Right now, this solution is readily available for a Java-based application. In the future we plan to have:
- Jira Integration
- Container/K8s Scanning
- Check the integration with other CI tools like AWS code build, Azure DevOps, CircleCI, and Jfrog
- Security Monitoring with respect to other cloud service providers – Azure and GCP
