The infographic maps “shift-left” software security across the pipeline, from source control and developer workstations through CI/CD, image builds, registries, admission control, and runtime. It emphasizes catching IaC misconfigurations and application vulnerabilities early with automated scans (for example via a VS Code extension, CLI scanning, and CI integrations), enforcing policies before artifacts and images are stored or deployed, and using an admission controller as the last gate. At runtime it highlights continuous monitoring for drift, suspicious behavior, and over-permissioned identities (CIEM), with principles like defense in depth, least privilege, zero trust, security by default, and continuous compliance.
