Secure Delivery in our Remote Reality: Modzy's Approach to DevSecOps
summary
Modzy describes a concrete DevSecOps pipeline that uses AWS accounts separated for dev/test/prod, GitLab or Jenkins for CI, and Armory Spinnaker for CD, ending CI at packaging and handing immutable artifacts to delivery. Non‑prod environments get regularly repaved, artifact tags are enforced with tag immutability and digital signatures are notarized and verified before promotion. The team follows the DoD DevSecOps reference architecture, limits human access to higher environments, and relies on automation and audit logs to prove provenance and prevent unauthorized swaps.
