"But DevSecOps was the turning point. Initially, I thought it was unnecessary - security should already have been part of DevOps. Yet DevSecOps resonated because it forced organizations to recognize security as a first-class citizen in the software supply chain. It became shorthand for cultural change, tooling integration and process realignment. In short, it earned its place. Since then, I've been more willing to listen when new variations come along."
"At its core, DevGovOps is about weaving governance into DevOps practices. Governance isn't glamorous. It conjures images of checklists, auditors and compliance officers wagging fingers at engineers. But in the real world of modern enterprises, governance is no longer optional. Why now? Because AI has changed the game. With the explosion of shadow AI - teams experimenting with ChatGPT, GitHub Copilot, or custom LLMs without IT's blessing - organizations need visibility and guardrails."
DevGovOps weaves governance into DevOps practices to make compliance, visibility and risk controls integral to the software supply chain. The emergence of shadow AI tools like ChatGPT, GitHub Copilot, and custom LLMs has increased the need for guardrails and enterprise oversight. Past 'XXOps' variants often failed, but DevSecOps succeeded by elevating security to a first-class concern; DevGovOps aims for similar cultural, tooling, and process integration around governance. Governance moves beyond checklists to proactive controls embedded in workflows, addressing board-level accountability and preventing unsanctioned AI experimentation inside development teams.
