12 modules, each with 12 chapters (144 chapters total), text-based, plus downloadable templates and a hand-built implementation playbook delivered alongside course access.
Compliance officers are being asked to validate fast-moving software pipelines without clear frameworks or tools.

The situation this course is for

DevOps velocity often outpaces traditional compliance review cycles, creating friction, rework, and uncertainty. Officers lack structured methods to embed controls without slowing innovation. The result is reactive audits, strained engineering relationships, and missed opportunities to shape secure delivery from the start.

Who this is for

A compliance, risk, or governance professional in a technology-driven organization adopting DevOps practices. They need to enforce standards without becoming a bottleneck and want to lead with influence across technical teams.

Who this is not for

This course is not for software developers seeking coding techniques or security engineers building detection tools. It’s not for executives wanting high-level summaries without implementation detail.

What you walk away with

  • Apply risk-based controls to CI/CD pipelines aligned with compliance obligations
  • Design audit-ready DevOps workflows with embedded compliance evidence
  • Collaborate effectively with engineering teams using shared DevSecOps language and objectives
  • Automate compliance validation at scale using policy-as-code practices
  • Lead confident, proactive engagement in digital transformation initiatives
