Adding SAST to CI/CD, Without Losing Any Friends

Presented at BSidesLV 2023, Aug. 8, 2023, 3 p.m. (Unknown duration)

Everyone wants to put tests into the release pipeline, but no one wants to wait hours for them to finish. In this learning lab we will discuss multiple options for adding static application security testing (SAST) to your CI/CD, in ways that won't compromise speed or results, such as learning which results can be safely ignored, writing your own rules, company-specific checks, scanning PRs instead of commits, splitting blocking scans versus deep audit scans, etc. We will also cover ways to continuously find vulnerabilities.
