Still adjusting to shift from quarterly releases to daily deploys
I used to spend a week locking down infrastructure before a software release, checking every firewall rule and scanning for vulnerabilities by hand. Now my team pushes code to production three times a day with automated CI/CD pipelines that handle the security checks in minutes. Has anyone else found that moving to DevSecOps made them trust automation more than they expected?

Yeah that shift is wild. I remember triple checking everything before a launch, now it's just "ship it" and the bots handle the rest.
Feels weird at first but honestly the automation catches stuff I'd miss half the time.

Feeling that so hard. I spent years doing the same thing, locking everything down by hand and losing sleep over it. The first time the pipeline flagged something I would've missed, I actually laughed out loud because it felt like magic. Now I trust the automated scans more than my own checklist, and it's a strange relief honestly. It took me a few months to stop hovering over every deploy, but now I just check the dashboards and move on. There's something humbling about admitting the bots are better at this than I ever was.
