DevSecOps is an engineering practice that promotes collaboration among development, security, and operations. When implemented, it creates a socio-technical system that uses automation for flexible, rapid, frequent delivery of secure infrastructure and software to production. Software development organizations must tailor each DevSecOps pipeline to the people, processes, and technology needed to provide a product or service. Until recently, there was no consistent basis for managing software-intensive development, cybersecurity, and operations in distributed systems.

Then in May, the SEI released version 1.0 of the DevSecOps PIM, a reusable reference architecture for DevSecOps pipelines. Software development organizations can use the online, interactive PIM as a reference architecture or assessment tool for their own DevSecOps pipelines.
