Secure DevOps Practices Training

Integrate Security Into Your DevOps Workflow

Modern DevOps teams manage complex infrastructure and deployment pipelines that are prime targets for attackers. With security training for DevOps engineers, we help organizations integrate security throughout their operations, cloud infrastructure, and application delivery lifecycle.

Hands-On Training From Active Security Engineers

Our instructors work daily with CI/CD pipelines, cloud environments, and container orchestration—the same tools your team uses. Your engineers learn from real-world attack scenarios through hands-on labs, gaining skills they can apply to harden infrastructure, secure pipelines, and detect threats before they reach production.

Testimonials

The communication was organized and the highest level possible using modern tools available. Berezha Security was able to discuss all cybersecurity topics. Although the topics were complex, our staff was able to comprehend the lecturer's lessons. Altogether, the team did a tremendous job.

Viacheslav Viskushenko

Information Security Manager, Credit Agricole Ukraine

The audience remained highly engaged during the workshop. The trainer's delivery radically differed from what we expected based on previous experience with CBT security awareness courses. As a result, the audience learned a lot and was able to clear out every pre-existing ambiguity in the corporate security requirements and countermeasures with a professional third-party expert.

Evgeniy Gubanov

COO, Brightgrove

Berezha Security conducted effective training sessions. They demonstrated various penetration testing tools to great success, so our team is now familiar with new frameworks. The Berezha team was responsive and communicative; it's comprised of professional experts who know their field well.

Start building more secure and resilient infrastructure: enroll your DevOps team for security training.

In cyber security, offense and defense are both operations. Our training helps engineers understand how attackers think and how defenders respond, so they can build software that resists real-world threats. The true mastery of security lies in learning from both sides and passing that knowledge on.
