Continuous deployment is the software engineering practice of deploying many small incremental software updates into production, leading to a continuous stream of 10s, 100s, or even 1,000s of deployments per day. High-pro le Internet rms such as Amazon, Etsy, Facebook, Flickr, Google, and Net ix have embraced continuous deployment. However, the practice has not been covered in textbooks and no scienti c publication has presented an analysis of continuous deployment. This talk will relate experiences from the Continuous Deployment Summit, which has been run annually from 2015 to 2017. We will present a security integration checklist focusing on Communication, Culture and Technology, where we conclude that the summit participants get a green light for Technology, amber for Culture, and a red light for Communication.
