With AI in the hands of cybercriminals, traditional security controls and response mechanisms are swiftly moving toward obsolescence. Intelligent Continuous Security (ICS) helps organizations stay toe-to-toe with adversaries, replacing outmoded defenses with a cohesive strategy that unifies security across the entire software lifecycle.

Author Marc Hornbeek outlines the principles, strategies, and real-world implementations of ICS, including how to break down silos between DevSecOps and SecOps, how to measure and optimize security effectiveness, and how AI can transform everything from security operations to regulatory compliance. Security professionals, DevOps engineers, IT leaders, and decision-makers will learn how to move toward adaptive, self-healing defenses to keep pace with emerging risks.
