CI/CD Environments: CI/CD stands for Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery/Deployment. Continuous Integration involves integrating changes from different contributors into a central repository frequently, which encourages catching integration bugs early. Continuous Delivery/Deployment involves automating the release process to get validated changes deployed to production quickly and sustainably. From a security perspective, CI/CD environments should be set up to include automated security checks and tests at various stages, such as static code analysis for potential vulnerabilities and dynamic testing in staging environments, to ensure that security is a part of the process from start to finish.
