1.1 - About Enterprise DevSecOps Security Platforms sector
Companies in this category provide integrated security tooling that embeds protection, compliance, and governance across modern software delivery pipelines. Their platforms automate code, dependency, and infrastructure checks within CI/CD, safeguard containers and cloud workloads, and enforce policy-as-code. Enterprise DevSecOps Security Platforms help customers reduce risk, accelerate releases, and maintain software supply chain integrity without slowing developer productivity.
Offerings typically include CI/CD pipeline security that gates builds with SAST and SCA results, dynamic application testing for staging environments, and container and Kubernetes runtime protection. Vendors add IaC scanning to catch misconfigurations before provisioning, secrets management to prevent credential leaks, and SBOM generation with signed artifacts for provenance. Many also provide policy-as-code, vulnerability prioritization, and automated remediation workflows integrated with issue trackers and chatops.
Primary customers include enterprise engineering and DevOps leaders, cloud-native SaaS teams, and organizations in regulated industries. These platforms enable faster, more reliable releases by shifting security left, reduce exploitable vulnerabilities through continuous testing, and improve audit readiness with centralized compliance reporting. They also strengthen software supply chain controls, lower mean time to remediate, and provide consistent governance across multi-cloud environments.
