Secure SDLC & DevSecOps
Make security part of everyday software delivery.
Late security findings and unclear responsibilities make releases harder to manage. We integrate suitable security measures into your development process, from requirements and architecture through code, dependencies and deployment. Clear checks and responsibilities help teams identify risks earlier and turn findings into practical work.
Your options
Services that move your project forward
Define security responsibilities
We assess protection requirements, application types and existing processes. Responsibilities, approvals and criteria are defined for the way your teams actually work.
Your team knows what decisions are made, when and by whom.
Connect architecture and standards
Threat models, review criteria and understandable development rules are intertwined. Recurring requirements are documented in usable templates and examples.
Security knowledge becomes easier to apply in everyday project work.
Integrate development checks
Code, dependency, secret and container checks are selected to suit the application. Results are linked to clear thresholds and responsibilities.
Developers receive actionable feedback in a timely manner.
Protect the software supply chain
Repository permissions, build access, dependencies and artifact repositories are considered together. Provenance records and approvals support a controlled path to production.
Changes and delivered software versions remain traceable.
Manage findings and exceptions
We connect technical findings with affected products, priorities and remediation workflows. Temporary exceptions have a reason, an owner and a review date.
Open risks remain visible and are given a specific work assignment.
Pilot and share knowledge
A pilot team tests the measures in a real delivery process. Feedback, documentation and guided implementation prepare other teams to adopt the approach.
A proven process that your teams can continue on their own.
Where to start
Secure SDLC & DevSecOps Use cases
Three example situations show how we can help.
Clarify security before the release
A product is released regularly, but security reviews arrive late. We move suitable feedback into earlier steps while retaining focused approvals for critical changes.
Many scanners, little editing
Tools generate many findings without a reliable route to resolution. We organize ownership, priorities and exceptions and connect the work to the existing backlog.
Common standards for multiple teams
Different pipelines make comparability and verification difficult. Reusable templates create a common basis with documented, justified deviations.
From requirements to results
A clear process with agreed milestones
Understand the delivery process
We track a change from repository to production and capture existing controls.
Prioritize measures
The need for protection and actual risks determine the first tests and process improvements.
Pilot with one team
Templates, checks and remediation workflows are integrated and tested using realistic cases.
Review and expand
The team evaluates feedback, processing effort and gaps. After that, the next expansion stage is agreed.
Your benefit
What you receive
- Prioritized action plan for your software lifecycle.
- Adjusted pipeline steps and development guidelines to the agreed scope.
- Clear rules for findings, approvals and temporary exceptions.
- Documentation and knowledge transfer for development and IT operations.

Platform experience for your project
We use these selected tools in SYNEDAT PLATFORM or its delivery processes. We adapt suitable practices to your project and align their integration with your existing systems.
From source code to verified artifacts
Azure DevOps · GitLab · Jenkins · Harbor · Nexus
Version control, build processes and artifact repositories make software versions traceable. Our platform approach connects these activities with defined checks and approvals. For your project, we select tools that fit your teams and existing processes.
A clear delivery process and traceable software versions.
Quality and the software supply chain
SonarQube · Trivy · Dependency-Track · DefectDojo · Renovate · Syft · Cosign
Code quality, vulnerabilities, dependencies and artifact provenance require different checks. Findings need to be linked to the product and delivered version, with a defined process for resolving them. Automated checks complement reviews and informed decisions.
Security and quality information that teams can act on.
Questions before you get started
Do we need to change our CI/CD platform?
As a rule, we start with your existing processes and tools. A change is only suggested if a specific requirement can be better met with it. It is crucial that results are used in everyday work.
Which tools can be integrated?
Depending on the environment, SonarQube, Trivy, Dependency-Track or existing manufacturer services may be considered. Our platform approach also includes versioned configuration and centrally managed artifacts. Selection, licenses and integration are checked for your project.
Will every finding block a release?
No. Rules should reflect the risk, the application and the reliability of the check. We distinguish release criteria, advisory findings and justified exceptions. Findings still require informed assessment.
Does DevSecOps replace a penetration test?
Automated and in-process checks complement a targeted penetration test. They cover different issues. The scope and timing of manual checks are determined according to protection requirements and changes.
What does a software bill of materials provide?
An SBOM describes the software components in a product and helps identify exposure to vulnerabilities discovered later. It needs to match the delivered version and feed into a maintained assessment and remediation process.
How do you handle secrets in pipelines?
We review the permissions, source and use of technical credentials. Suitable secret management, restricted access and supported short-lived identities are considered. Credentials that have already been exposed require controlled replacement.
How much time should our team set aside?
People from development, platform operation and security are needed for decisions and testing. We specify the required participation in the offer. A delimited pilot keeps the initial effort manageable.
What remains after the introduction?
You will receive the agreed templates, rules, integrations and handover documents. Responsible persons and maintenance tasks are defined so that checks, exceptions and dependencies remain up-to-date after the project.
