Palo Alto Networks Cybersecurity-Practitioner Exam - Topic 5 Question 6 Discussion

Actual exam question for Palo Alto Networks's Cybersecurity-Practitioner exam
Question #: 6
Topic #: 5
[All Cybersecurity-Practitioner Questions]

How does DevSecOps improve the Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) pipeline?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

DevSecOps takes the concept behind DevOps that developers and IT teams should work together closely, instead of separately, throughout software delivery and extends it to include security and integrate automated checks into the full CI/CD pipeline. The integration of the CI/CD pipeline takes care of the problem of security seeming like an outside force and instead allows developers to maintain their usual speed without compromising data security

I think A is misleading; security shouldn't lead deployment.

C) DevSecOps unites the Security team with the Development and Operations teams to integrate security into the CI/CD pipeline. Finally, a team effort that doesn't involve the janitor.

D) DevSecOps does security checking after the application code has been processed through the CI/CD pipeline. Ah, the classic "better late than never" approach to security.

A) DevSecOps improves pipeline security by assigning the security team as the lead team for continuous deployment. Isn't that just putting the fox in charge of the henhouse?

B) DevSecOps ensures the pipeline has horizontal intersections for application code deployment. Sounds like a fancy way to say "it makes the pipeline wider."

C) DevSecOps unites the Security team with the Development and Operations teams to integrate security into the CI/CD pipeline. This is the correct answer as it aligns with the core principles of DevSecOps.

I recall that DevSecOps is all about embedding security into the development process, so I feel like option C is the best choice here.

I’m a bit confused about the role of security in the pipeline. Does it really come after the code is processed, like in option D? That doesn’t seem right.

I think I saw a practice question that mentioned how DevSecOps brings together the security, development, and operations teams, which sounds a lot like option C.

I remember studying how DevSecOps integrates security throughout the CI/CD process, but I'm not sure if it specifically means the security team leads the deployment.

I'm pretty confident the answer is C. The whole point of DevSecOps is to embed security throughout the development lifecycle, including the CI/CD pipeline.

I'm a little confused by the options. I was thinking DevSecOps was more about automating security checks, not just having the security team lead deployment. I'll have to re-read the question carefully.

C sounds right to me. The key is that DevSecOps unites the teams to make security a core part of the CI/CD process, not just an afterthought.

Hmm, I'm not sure. I know DevSecOps is about security, but I'm not clear on how it specifically improves the CI/CD pipeline. I'll have to think this through.

I think the answer is C. DevSecOps brings the security team together with dev and ops to integrate security throughout the pipeline.
