GitOps Security: Protecting Your Infrastructure-as-Code Workflows
GitOps has emerged as the preferred paradigm for managing cloud infrastructure and Kubernetes workloads with Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) principles. By leveraging Git as the single source of truth for configuration and operational workflows, teams gain improved transparency, automation, and auditability. However, as with any automation-centric approach, GitOps introduces new attack surfaces and risks to the software supply chain. Security professionals, DevOps engineers, and technology leaders must understand and mitigate these risks to safeguard their CI/CD pipelines, cloud resources, and service integrity.
