Security News > 2020 > May > Survey: Teams supported by mature DevOps practices more likely to integrate automated security
Teams are deploying software from DevOps teams at an accelerated rate, according to Sonatype, providers of the Nexus platform for application security, which recently released the 2020 DevSecOps Community Survey.
The survey also showed that teams with mature DevOps support were happier in their jobs.
Are happy developers more likely to use the advanced tools?
"Happy developers were nearly twice as likely than grumpy developers to use security analysis in their work. Among those who do not run security analysis, those numbers were almost exactly inverted, at 34% of happy developers lacking the tools and 66% of the grumpies. The mature DevOps practices were more likely to have satisfied employees with 92% of high maturity respondents satisfied at work, and just 61% of the lower maturity shops. Grumpy developers also reported less awareness across the board of security tools, except for"Security Management'' and Rumor, where 19% of grumpy developers indicated they were clued in versus 5% of happy developers.
The survey reported that 21% of respondents had had an open source security breach in the past year.
