Software development speed has significantly increased in recent years with methodologies like Agile and DevOps that use automation, among other technics, to enable continuous delivery of new features and software updates to the market. This increased speed has given rise to concerns over guaranteeing security at such a pace. To improve security in today’s fast-paced software development, DevSecOps was created as an extension of DevOps. This thesis focuses on the experiences and challenges of organizations and teams striving to implement DevSecOps. We first view our concepts through existing literature. Then, we conduct an online survey of 37 professionals from both security and development backgrounds. The results present the participants’ overall sentiments towards DevSecOps and the challenges they struggle with. We also investigate what kind of solutions have been tried to mitigate these issues and if these solutions have indeed worked.
