Debjyoti Ganguly shares insights on the security benefits and configuration of GHAS Code Scanning with Azure DevOps. Boosting Azure DevOps Security with GHAS Code Scanning Code scanning, a pipeline-based tool available in GitHub Advanced Security, is designed to detect code vulnerabilities and bugs within the source code of ADO (Azure DevOps) repositories. Utilizing CodeQL as a static analysis tool, it performs query analysis and variant analysis. When vulnerabilities are found, it generates security alerts. CodeQL CodeQL is a powerful static analysis tool used for showing vulnerabilities and bugs in source code. It enables developers to write custom queries that analyze codebases, searching for specific patterns and potential security issues. By converting code into a database format, CodeQL allows for sophisticated, database-like queries to detect flaws. CodeQL in Action 1. Preparing the Code Create a CodeQL Database : Extract and structure the code into a database for analy...
AWS SAM CLI now supports AWS CloudFormation Language Extensions , enabling you to reduce duplication in your infrastructure as code (IaC) templates while retaining the full local development workflow. This accelerates your serverless development by letting you define resources once and iterate locally without waiting for cloud deployments. Developers frequently need to define multiple similar resources, such as Lambda functions, DynamoDB tables, or SNS topics, from a single template definition. However, developers who use SAM CLI to build, test, and deploy their serverless applications previously could not process templates that use CloudFormation Language Extensions. This required choosing between reducing template duplication and using SAM CLI for local development. Now, SAM CLI processes Language Extensions in memory for local operations while preserving your original template for CloudFormation deployment. You can define your resources once and test them locally across all SAM C...
