Development teams are continually faced with additional responsibilities pushed onto them including but not limited to: · Alignment to evolving audit policy · Least Privilege & Separation of Duties; · Pipeline as Code (Everything as Code); · Open Source Security compliance During this session, Jamie will share the journey to around the Fidelity "Software Delivery Platform" that enables developers to focus on the business value "above the line" delegating to the platform to manage the non-business value "below the line" ensuring all build, quality, security, audit capabilities are executed with built in control gates to ensure continuous compliance and fast feedback across the SDLC process.
