Rapid and secure feature delivery is a goal across every application team and every branch of the DoD. The Navy’s DevSecOps platform, Party Barge, has achieved:
- Reduction in onboarding time from 5 weeks to 1 day
- Improved developer experience and productivity through actionable findings and reduction of false positives
- Maintenance of superior security standards and inherent policy enforcement with Authorization to Operate (ATO)
Development teams can ship efficiently and ensure applications are cyber ready for Navy Authorizing Officials (AOs). In this webinar, Sigma Defense and Anchore will give attendees a look behind the scenes and demo secure pipeline automation and security artifacts that speed up application ATO and time to production.
We will cover:
- How to remove silos in DevSecOps
- How to build efficient development pipeline roles and component templates
- How to deliver security artifacts that matter for ATO’s (SBOMs, vulnerability reports, and policy evidence)
- How to streamline operations with automated policy checks on container images

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
Gopinath Rebala
Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery. Gopi also has a strong connection with our customers, leading design and architecture for strategic implementations. Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.

Editor's Notes
- http://www.greeneclipse.com/stickypad.html There are many websites and I chose this one. There was one through Microsoft Office but I couldn’t find it.
- It could also be a shortcut on your desktop.
- http://tinnes.org.uk/desktopcalendar/downloading7.phpBetween this and the sticky notes I am usually covered with all my appointments, meetings, etc. So download one of these. And show how this works. Double click on the date to open a new window, give it a title (I give that date), categorize your meetings and appointments. This is a really cool function about this tool.
- On the windows task bar at the bottom, right click and find Toolbars. Enable links. Right click on the menu bar on top of the page and enable favourites bar (It may say Customise links, or
- Once you do this, you can open any new website, drag it to the links or favourites bar and it will show on top. Good example for me is Ask Us, Press Display, etc.
- mkumaran for password and login. What you see is what you get with this site. You cannot search for an article, but you can save articles to read later. It allows you to archive information (not sure how long it stays) You can subscribe to this feed and save it in your favourites bar. Read the article, Save, Go to Unread and Archive. From here Export it as HTML or CSV and read it. Organize them in different folders. Covers some major newspapers such as NYTimes, Guardian UK, Washington Post, etc.
- This saves your URL, Title of the article, author of the article and shows you which folder you have this information in.
- Need gmail accountCan create a presentation, document, spreadsheet, form or drawing. They also have templates you can borrow to create your budget or your resume.
- Just enter the information you want to keep up on (eg: Blu Ray) Decide how often you want your email, whether you want your information to be comprehensive, just from blogs, webpages, news, etc. Enter your email and you are done. You will get all alerts. Another one is Social Mention
- When you click on Create an Alert you get this small window. Enter all the information and you have just created an alert.
- http://www.doodle.com/ Log in as maha_kumaran@yahoo.ca and mkumaran.
- Change your time zone. Write the times you are available. You can also add more time slots, or copy more rows for more dates. Once you are all set up you will be given a Participant Link and Administrator Link. If you need to make changes go to the latter. If you are happy with what you did, then work with participant link. Check the next couple of slides.
- When you click on the participant link, this is what you will see. Click on the times you are available and save. Then send the link to others.
- This is what the receivers will see. They will add their name and click on the relevant boxes. At a glance, you know what works for everyone.
- FaxZero only requires you to login and enter all the sender and receiver information. Browse to find your document and send it as an attachment. You can only fax 2 free faxes per day. One document can have 3 pages. If you have more than that you can pay 1.99 (US) and fax them. This is only within North America.
