DevSecOps Implementation for Faster, Secure Releases
Automate security testing throughout your pipeline to catch vulnerabilities early when they're faster and less costly to fix.
👋 Talk to a DevSecOps expert.
Trusted and top rated tech team
Security integrated into your pipeline
Security reviews that happen at the end of development create bottlenecks. Vulnerabilities found in production cost more to fix and put your users at risk. We integrate automated scanning into your existing CI/CD workflow so issues surface during development when they’re faster to address and don’t delay your releases.
Our capabilities include:
- Static and dynamic application security testing
- Container and infrastructure scanning
- Dependency and open-source vulnerability detection
- Secret detection and credential scanning
- Compliance automation and reporting
- Security monitoring and incident response
Who we support
We work with engineering teams where security reviews delay releases, vulnerabilities slip into production, or compliance requirements create last-minute scrambles before audits.
Teams With Security Bottlenecks
Your security reviews happen at the end of the sprint and hold up releases. Developers wait days for feedback, then rush fixes under deadline pressure. Automated scanning that catches issues during development solves this without blocking deployments.
Teams Finding Issues Post-Deploy
Your team discovers security issues after code ships, triggering expensive hotfixes and incident response. Shift-left testing surfaces problems when they're cheaper to address and before users are affected.
Companies With Compliance Pressure
Your audits require evidence of security practices, but gathering documentation is manual and stressful. Automated compliance checks and reporting built into your pipeline make audit readiness continuous, not a scramble.
Ways to engage
We offer a wide range of engagement models to meet our clients’ needs. From hourly consultation to fully managed solutions, our engagement models are designed to be flexible and customizable.
Staff Augmentation
Get access to on-demand product and engineering team talent that gives your company the flexibility to scale up and down as business needs ebb and flow.
Retainer Services
Retainers are perfect for companies that have a fully built product in maintenance mode. We'll give you peace of mind by keeping your software running, secure, and up to date.
Project Engagement
Project-based contracts that can range from small-scale audit and strategy sessions to more intricate replatforming or build from scratch initiatives.
We'll spec out a custom engagement model for you
Invested in creating success and defining new standards
Why choose Curotec for DevSecOps?
Security tools only work if developers use them. We embed scanning into your CI/CD pipeline, not as extra processes your team might ignore. Automated gates catch vulnerabilities during development, compliance reporting runs continuously, and your release speed remains unaffected. Security ships with your code, not against it.

FAQs about DevSecOps implementation
How long does DevSecOps implementation take?
Basic pipeline integration with SAST and dependency scanning deploys in 4-6 weeks. Comprehensive implementations with container scanning, compliance automation, and monitoring take 10-14 weeks depending on pipeline complexity.
Will security scanning slow our releases?
Properly configured scanning adds minutes, not hours. We tune tools to reduce false positives, parallelize scans where possible, and set appropriate thresholds so security gates inform decisions without blocking every build.
Can you work with our existing CI/CD pipeline?
Yes, we integrate with Jenkins, GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, CircleCI, and other platforms. Security tools plug into your existing workflow rather than requiring pipeline rewrites or parallel processes.
How do you handle false positives?
We tune scanning rules, create baseline configurations, and implement triage workflows that help developers distinguish real vulnerabilities from noise. Good configuration reduces alert fatigue and keeps teams engaged.
What compliance frameworks do you support?
We map security checks to SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, GDPR, and other frameworks. Automated reporting generates audit evidence continuously so compliance documentation stays current without manual effort.
Do you provide ongoing support after implementation?
Yes, we offer retainer support for tool updates, rule tuning, and new vulnerability response. Our teams stay current with your pipeline for rapid assistance when critical issues emerge.
