Azure DevOps enables this by integrating security checks within CI/CD pipelines. By using static application security testing (SAST) tools like SonarQube or Whitesource Bolt, developers can identify vulnerabilities in their code as soon as they write it. This "shift-left" approach ensures security issues are addressed during the initial development stages, reducing the cost and complexity of fixing them later. Azure DevOps Training 2.
