Abstract

The research evaluates the significant role of DevOps in managing compliance and also governance within the software development lifecycle. It evaluates CI/CD, automation, as well as the Infrastructure as Code (IaC) as significant enablers of regulatory adherence. The research recognizes issues involving the deficiency of the compliance expertise, and enhanced regulations, alongside team misalignment in featuring best practices involving compliance-as-code, continuous tracking, and automated policy integration. In addition to that, it defines AI-associated compliance tools alongside adequate governance frameworks as future approaches. The specific organizations can improve overall security, mitigate risks, alongside manage regulatory adherence through incorporating compliance adequately into the specific DevOps workflows.
