DevOps

Enhancing control

Driven by insight

DevOps has transformed how organizations develop and release software, accelerating innovation and driving business value. However, the agility of DevOps also introduces unique challenges, particularly in maintaining security, compliance, and control amidst continuous delivery pipelines. As speed increases, so can risks—ranging from deployment flaws to misaligned governance over development and operational processes.

At Brightlyn, we specialize in helping organizations align their DevOps practices with robust control frameworks, ensuring not only compliance but also resilient and secure software delivery. One of our founders co-authored the DevOps in Control framework, published by NOREA, the professional association of IT auditors in The Netherlands. This framework provides a structured, actionable approach to assessing controls within DevOps environments and implementing safeguards tailored to your organization.

1. Why should we invest in a DevOps assessment if our pipelines are already running?

Because "running" isn’t the same as "resilient." Many organizations operate pipelines that appear efficient—until audit pressure, a compliance gap, or a security incident exposes weaknesses. Our DevOps assessment goes beyond surface-level performance to reveal blind spots, governance gaps, and hidden risks that could derail your growth or put your compliance at risk.

2. How does the DevOps in Control framework add value beyond our internal practices?

3. Will this slow down our delivery cycles or development speed?

4. What kind of DevOps maturity level do we need to benefit from this assessment?

5. What does the roadmap deliverable actually include?
