Automated Audits vs Penetration Testing
Developers should learn and use automated audits to ensure code reliability, enhance security, and maintain compliance in fast-paced development environments, such as in DevOps or CI/CD pipelines meets developers should learn penetration testing to build more secure software by understanding how attackers think and operate, enabling them to design and code with security in mind from the start. Here's our take.

Automated Audits
Nice PickDevelopers should learn and use automated audits to ensure code reliability, enhance security, and maintain compliance in fast-paced development environments, such as in DevOps or CI/CD pipelines
Pros
- +It is particularly valuable for large-scale projects where manual reviews are impractical, helping to catch issues early, reduce human error, and streamline audit processes in industries like finance or healthcare with strict regulatory requirements
- +Related to: continuous-integration, static-code-analysis
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
Penetration Testing
