DevSecOps on Azure OpenHack

DevSecOps on Azure OpenHack is an immersive, hands-on learning experience designed to help development and security teams seamlessly integrate security practices throughout the entire software development lifecycle. This intensive workshop focuses on leveraging Azure's powerful cloud platform alongside GitHub Advanced Security to build secure, compliant, and resilient applications from the ground up. Participants will gain practical experience implementing security controls, automated testing frameworks, and policy enforcement mechanisms that catch vulnerabilities early and maintain security posture throughout deployment. Through real-world scenarios and collaborative challenges, you'll learn to implement continuous security scanning, secret detection, dependency vulnerability management, and code analysis using GitHub Advanced Security features. The OpenHack covers essential practices including infrastructure as code security, container scanning, compliance automation, and security policy as code. You'll discover how to integrate security gates into CI/CD pipelines, automate security testing, and enforce organizational policies without slowing down development velocity. This experience is ideal for DevOps engineers, security professionals, cloud architects, and development teams looking to shift security left and adopt a proactive security culture. By the end of the OpenHack, you'll have hands-on experience building secure deployment pipelines, implementing zero-trust principles, and creating automated security workflows that scale across your organization. You'll leave with practical skills and architectural patterns that can be immediately applied to secure your Azure workloads while maintaining the agility and speed that modern development demands.
