GitLab Security and Governance
GitLab empowers your teams to balance speed and security by automating software delivery and securing your end-to-end software supply chain.
GitLab Solutions
GitLab is The DevSecOps Platform that empowers organizations to deliver software faster, more efficiently, while strengthening security and compliance.
Shift Left Security and Compliance
Ship with speed and security
Integrated security
One platform, one price, everything out of the box.
Continuous security
Automated scans before and after code push.
Complete control
Implement guardrails and automate policies.
Secure your software supply chain
GitLab helps you secure your end-to-end software supply chain (including your source, build, dependencies, and released artifacts), create an inventory of software used (software bill of materials), and apply necessary controls.
Manage threat vectors
GitLab helps you shift security left by automatically scanning vulnerabilities in source code, containers, dependencies, and running applications. Guardrail controls can be put in place to secure your production environment.
Adhere to compliance requirements
GitLab can help you track your changes, implement necessary controls to protect what goes into production, and ensure adherence to license compliance and regulatory frameworks.
Integrate security testing within the CI/CD pipeline
Use our built-in scanners and integrate custom scanners. Shift security left to empower developers to find and fix security flaws as they are created. Comprehensive scanners include SAST, DAST, secret scanning, dependency scanning, container scanning, IaC scanning, API security, and fuzz testing.
AI‑powered DevSecOps Platform
All the benefits of the DevSecOps Platform, now faster than ever.
AI-powered workflows
Boost efficiency and reduce cycle times with the help of AI in every phase of the software development lifecycle.
Privacy-first, enterprise-grade
We lead with a privacy-first approach to help enterprises and regulated organizations adopt AI-powered workflows.
Single application
A single application with built-in security to deliver more software faster, enabling executive visibility across value streams and preventing context switching.
Empower every user at every step
From planning and code creation to testing, security, and monitoring, our AI-assisted workflows support developer, security, and ops teams.
We help you build more secure software, faster.
Data protection by designEfficiency at the cost of privacy, security, and compliance is a nonstarter for you and us. With Code Suggestions, you keep your proprietary source code secure within GitLab’s cloud infrastructure and this code isn’t used as training data.
Continuous Integration and Delivery
Make software delivery repeatable and on-demand
GitLab Continuous Integration and Delivery automates all the steps required to build, test and deploy your code to your production environment.
Continuous integration automates the builds, provides feedback via code review, and automates code quality and security tests. It creates a release package that is ready to be deployed to your production environment.
Continuous delivery automatically provisions infrastructure, manages infrastructure changes, ticketing, and release versioning. It allows, progressive code deployment, verifying and monitoring changes made and providing the ability to roll back when necessary. Together, GitLab Continuous Integration and Delivery help you automate your SDLC, making it repeatable and on-demand with minimal manual intervention.
Automate entire workflows with GitLab CI/CD
- Improve developer productivity with in-context testing results.
- Create secure and compliant releases by testing every change.
- Implement guardrails to safeguard your deployments.
- Automate consistent pipelines for both simplicity and scale.
- Automate both applications and infrastructure.
- Accelerate your cloud native and hybrid cloud journey.
Value Stream Management
Measure and manage the business value of your DevSecOps lifecycle.
Benefits of Value Stream Management
Software development should always aim to maximize customer or business value delivery—but how do you identify inefficiencies in that delivery, and how can you course-correct when you do? GitLab’s Value Stream Management helps businesses visualize their end-to-end DevSecOps workstream, identify and target waste and inefficiencies, and take action to optimize those workstreams to deliver the highest possible velocity of value.
A Value Stream Delivery Platform
In The Future of DevOps Toolchains Will Involve Maximizing Flow in IT Value Streams, Gartner recommended that “infrastructure and operations leaders responsible for selecting and deploying DevOps toolchains should: drive business ability by using DevOps value stream delivery platforms that reduce the overhead of managing complex toolchains.” [1] By providing an entire DevOps platform as a single application, GitLab is uniquely suited to provide end-to-end visibility throughout the entire lifecycle without the “toolchain tax.” As the place where work happens, GitLab can also unite visualization with action, allowing users to jump from learning to doing at any time, without losing context.

View and manage end-to-end processes
Value Stream Analytics helps you visualize and manage the DevSecOps flow from ideation to customer delivery. Out of the box, GitLab offers actionable reporting on common workflows and metrics, with nothing to install or configure. If you want to dive deeper or model custom workflows, GitLab’s unified, comprehensive data store makes it easy to track whatever events matter.
- One tool, no chain: GitLab unifies the entire DevSecOps toolchain into a single application. There are no integrations to manage, no API chokepoints to limit visibility, and a shared experience for everyone in the company, regardless of role.
- Shared, actionable data: A single source of insight built on a single system of work means you can spend more time developing value and less time finding where it’s stalled.
- Focus on value – not ceremony: Track and manage the actual flow of work and eliminate unnecessary ceremony. A single DevSecOps application means single-click drill down into actual work items, so you can remove blockages as soon as you find them.
Measure
Drive continuous improvement based on the data from your value stream.
- Track flow and accelerate: Focusing on the flow of value to customers is key to streamlining the delivery process.
- Cycle time: Track the actual work and effort, the real cycle time to deliver value.
- Business value: Link actual value back to the change.
- DORA4 metrics: DORA4 metrics help you benchmark your DevSecOps maturity and are a useful indicator for comparison – either within the team or comparable companies / industries. Monitor the Lead time for change and Deployment Frequency to measure your DevSecOps process efficiency.
