GitLab Auto DevOps runs SAST/DAST automatically the moment you turn it on. But a scan 'running' and a vulnerable image never reaching your production K3s cluster are two completely different things. Here's how to build an audit gate between CI/CD and the cluster.
Container image signing explained: tags can be overwritten by anyone, and passing CI tests doesn't guarantee the image running in production is the one you built. Learn how Sigstore and Kyverno work together to reject unsigned images on Kubernetes/K3s, integrated into a GitOps workflow.
The quality-gate mindset and test automation skills QA engineers already have map directly onto Kubernetes operations aptitude. Here's a realistic six-month roadmap for making the switch, and how to clear the biggest obstacle in the way.
Most production incidents happen because teams deploy everything at once. This article walks through how to design canary releases, automated rollback, and monitoring on Kubernetes using Argo Rollouts and GitOps — with practical steps small teams can actually sustain.
