CI/CD Pipelines (From commit to production, automatically): hand-drawn explainer poster

Continuous Integration: every push is built and tested automatically, so problems surface within minutes.

Continuous Delivery / Deployment: builds that pass are packaged and released to environments, either with a manual approval (delivery) or fully automatically (deployment).

Why it matters for security: the pipeline holds production credentials, so it is a prime target. Scan code and dependencies in the pipeline, keep secrets in a vault, pin third-party actions, and lock down who can change pipeline definitions.
