Running `trivy image` isn't DevSecOps—it's noise generation. Real security engineering is about signal-to-noise ratio. This guide provides production-grade configurations for 17 industry-standard tools to stop vulnerabilities without stopping the business, organized into three phases: pre-commit, CI gatekeepers, and runtime scanning.

Installing a security tool is the easy part. The hard part begins on 'Day 2,' when that tool reports 5,000 new vulnerabilities. This guide focuses on vulnerability management: how to filter out duplicate alerts, manage false positives, and track the metrics that actually measure success. Learn how to move from 'finding bugs' to 'fixing risks' without overwhelming your team.

Developer Experience (DevEx) is key when choosing security tools. Security should make the developer’s job easier, not harder. If developers have to leave their coding environment or use another dashboard to find issues, it slows them down and makes them less likely to use the tools.

This step-by-step approach helps you roll out security tools smoothly and keeps your builds running. Think of it as a series of small steps that safeguard your shipping, ensuring a more reliable and secure development process.
