A key feature, and also a key benefit, of cloud-based, digital native operations is the rapid growth in use of collaborative development platforms. This not only dramatically shortens time to market, it also enables better testing in virtual environments, while supporting agile ecosystem working. In this way, enterprises can extend the DevOps method, which has transformed the efficiency of software development, giving access to richer sources of innovation and expertise, leading to improved quality, customization and time to market. These benefits are highly attractive to enterprises in almost every sector, but there is another side to this story: the need to ensure that security keeps pace...

A key feature, and also a key benefit, of cloud-based, digital native operations is the rapid growth in use of collaborative development platforms.

This not only dramatically shortens time to market, it also enables better testing in virtual environments, while supporting agile ecosystem working. In this way, enterprises can extend the DevOps method, which has transformed the efficiency of software development, giving access to richer sources of innovation and expertise, leading to improved quality, customization and time to market.

These benefits are highly attractive to enterprises in almost every sector, but there is another side to this story: the need to ensure that security keeps pace with ecosystem DevOps, and that the move to co-development in the cloud remains not just fast but completely secure, as well.
