It’s easy to get lost in the plethora of continuous DevOps monitoring and DevSecOps tools available in the IT world nowadays. With the help of such continuous DevOps monitoring tools, CTOs and CISOs can leverage the security of their software development and ensure that their source code has no mistakes or vulnerabilities; what is more, it will never be lost.

Jira is a project management tool that helps IT teams simplify their DevOps and PM processes. Also, it supports easy collaboration throughout the team, thanks to the complex issue-tracking system. However, one thing you should be cautious of… It is the accidental or intentional deletion of important issues. Why?

Github Copilot became the subject of critical security concerns, mainly because of jailbreak vulnerabilities that allow attackers to modify the tool’s behavior. Two attack vectors – Affirmation Jailbreak and Proxy Hijack – lead to malicious code generation and unauthorized access to premium AI models. But that’s not all. Contents hide 1 Jailbreaking GitHub Copilot 1.1 Affirmation jailbreak? “Sure,” let’s exploit the AI system(s) 2 Proxy Hijack.

This guide provides a helpful roadmap for efficiently transitioning your repos, CI/CD pipelines, and security configurations. The main focus is key considerations and practices that result in a smooth process.

Having your software data is paramount: System administrators, data analysts, auditors, and software security experts face the challenge of securely extracting valuable information from Jira while ensuring efficiency, compliance, and data integrity. Fortunately, counting on reliable solutions to export issues or work items from Jira is a task that can be securely and efficiently covered.

The evolution of artificial intelligence has been rapid thus far. By 2030 the AI market is projected to reach $1.81 trillion. Technology supported by AI has been useful in many areas of life such as education, healthcare, or finance. That is reflected by the rate of AI adoption by organizations being 72% (2024). Even if you just look around you – many people use tools like ChatGPT for daily life or work, AI helps with email management or studying. What do these advancements in AI bring to DevOps?

We got it! We are proud to announce that GitProtect 1.9.5 now supports fast and reliable Jira Assets backup and recovery – with both Granular Restore and Disaster Recovery! As a result, our portfolio of protected DevOps data has expanded to include another important resource for our customers – and we continue to maintain our mission to protect the largest scope of DevOps platforms in the world.

Immutable backups (IB) are a robust defense mechanism against the consequences of cyberattacks. The latter can be considered an “evolving constant,” while DevOps environments closely link development and operations. IT teams adopt CI/CD pipelines and centralized applications utilizing multi-cloud deployment. And that usually translates into a growing attack surface (check 2024 DevOps Threats Unwrapped).

In most cases, migration from Bitbucket to Azure DevOps is driven by the need for better integration within the Microsoft ecosystem. This is especially true when scalability for larger projects and a unified development environment support modern software development practices. Companies undergo such a migration for strategic reasons.

The current DevOps market is rapidly expanding and it is important for organizations to keep a competitive edge. Today we will look at Agile methodologies and how they can be applied to and utilized in Jira. As you may know, Jira is a popular and comprehensive project management service from Atlassian that offers many tools that actually support Agile practices and development.
