• me has used DevOps optimally such that teh release product’s quality is visible to government stakeholders and project team members in all phases of its SDLC. dis include functional objectives of teh release as well as non-functional requirements and Cloud PaaS/IaaS assertions. My experience includes
• Rally/VersionOne for requirements management, git/svn for source code repository, Configuration Management using git/svn, Shell scripts and Ant/Maven builds using Jenkins, Continuous Integration using CruiseControl/Nexus, Fagan/CodeCollaborator/FxCop for code reviews, Automated Testing using SmartBear QA Complete, soapUI, jUnit, TestComplete, Fortify for security findings. Ansible/Amazon CloudFormation for Infrastructure as code, Docker for containerization.
• me has been teh application security design authority on my projects for securing data at rest, data in motion and data in use by applying credential management, access provisioning, authentication and authorization, application security, infrastructure security, data security, security monitoring, and operation security. me has experience in assessing security threats, identifying and tailoring security requirements, implementing and integrating security controls into teh SDLC as well as tracking security development activities. me has performed static code reviews, automatic code scans, security architecture reviews, penetration testing, and mitigated application level vulnerabilities.
