Secure CI/CD by Default

Pipelines are production-critical systems

CI/CD is often treated as tooling, but it is a privileged path into production. Weak controls here amplify risk dramatically.

Baseline controls

• Ephemeral credentials and least privilege.
• Signed artifacts and provenance tracking.
• Mandatory security checks on critical paths.
• Isolated environments for build and deploy stages.

Operational practice

Audit pipeline changes with the same rigor as application code.

Result

You protect release velocity while reducing high-impact supply-chain risk.
