Azure Security Benchmark ASBv3-DS-4: Integrate static application security testing into DevOps pipeline

Integrate static application security testing into the delivery workflow as a gating control, so results can block vulnerable code from being committed, built or deployed.

Other controls in DevOps Security

You are reading one control. How much of Azure Security Benchmark have you already done?

Azure Security Benchmark ASBv3-DS-4 is one control. If you already hold one of the frameworks below, a reviewed crosswalk already says how much of Azure Security Benchmark your existing evidence covers. Hold NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 and 71 of 85 Azure Security Benchmark controls already carry evidence.

Each report names every control your existing framework evidences, every one it does not, the reasoning behind each claim, and the claims that were argued against and rejected. 0 were rejected on the NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 pair alone.
