The client

Learn how a global engineering leader standardized CI/CD, automated compliance, and fostered a DevSecOps culture through security scans, SCA, and training.

Client requirements

  • Modernize Toolchain Replace the legacy toolchain with an integrated solution to break down silos and enable seamless collaboration across embedded, IoT, and cloud-native development teams.
  • Automate Compliance & Quality Checks Implement automated processes for compliance verification and code quality assurance to reduce manual effort and human error.
  • Centralized Visibility Establish unified visibility into code quality, security, and compliance metrics across all engineering workflows.

Our approach & solution

Standardized CI/CD pipelines across 100+ embedded and cloud projects, integrating custom SAST rules for C/C++ to enhance security. Automated compliance gates for ISO 26262 and IEC 62443 were embedded into merge requests, while centralized SCA provided real-time visibility into third-party components and vulnerabilities. Role-based training and hackathons further promoted a strong DevSecOps culture across teams.

Unified Pipelines

Standardized CI/CD pipelines for firmware and application teams to ensure consistency.

Embedded Security Testing

Integrated SAST, DAST, and software composition analysis (SCA) specific to real-time and safety-critical code.

Automation

Implemented policy-as-code to enforce ISO 26262 and IEC 62443 cybersecurity standards with automated checks.

Value delivered

  • Deployment Frequency Shifted from biweekly to daily releases (500% uplift).
  • Mean Time to Recovery Reduced from 12 hours to under 2 hours (83% faster).
  • Early Vulnerability Detection Increased from 45% late to 92% in merge requests (104% improvement).
  • Compliance Verification Time Cut from days of manual checks to automated minutes (98% time savings).
