    DevOps ain’t easy! We are hearing more and more about the breakdown and friction where Dev meets Ops, so let’s not even talk about all the other shift-left domains that add another layer of complexity in the middle like DevSecOps. Where this comes with the need to implement and integrate dozens of security tools in their SDLC. But what if it doesn’t have to be difficult? Jit's DevSecOps Orchestration Platform allows high-velocity Engineering teams to own product security while increasing dev velocity. With a unified and friendly developer experience, we envision a world where every cloud application is born with Minimal Viable Security (MVS) embedded and iteratively improves by adding Continuous Security into CI/CD/CS.
