Director of Information Security
Best Practices to create a SBOM with EOS/EOL Timeline to aid vulnerability remediation (currently use GitLab as our pipeline and Nexus repository).Group Director of Information Security
See Full DiscussionIt's a 5-step process which you will need to correlate for your environment.
1. Integrate dependency scanners (e.g., GitLab's built-in scanner, Trivy, Snyk, OWASP Dependency-Check or your existing Nexus repo) to flag outdated dependencies and use GitLab’s security dashboard to monitor deprecated packages.
2. Set up GitLab CI/CD rules to fail builds if EOL/EOS dependencies are detected and enforce allow/block lists for dependencies using GitLab’s security policies.
3. Configure GitLab to generate reports when a dependency is approaching its EOL and see if you can use GitLab’s webhook integrations to notify security teams via Slack, email, or Jira.
4. Implement dependency auto-updating tools (e.g., Renovate, Dependabot) to replace (identified & manually verified) EOL/EOS components. If no direct upgrade path exists, isolate the outdated component via containerization or sandboxing.
5. Maintain a historical record of all SBOMs and EOL/EOS alerts for compliance audits (ISO 27001, NIST, etc.). Regularly conduct security reviews using GitLab’s security reports.

What has been your experience utilizing GITLAB (not GITHUB) to implement CI/CD for Athena and AWS GLUE, specifically for a process to transfer changes in Athena Views from the development environment to production?CTO
See Full DiscussionWe have used gitlab CI CD pipelines using terraform for all AWS resources, not athena or glue specifically though.

Integrating GitLab Streamlined Code Reviews and Improved Developer Collaboration
We adopted GitLab's code review tools to standardise our code review process, improve collaboration among developers, and reduce bugs reaches before the production. Our goal was to have a single platform that supports merge requests, inline comments and CI integration without relying on multiple tools. - Devops Engineer<50M USDIT ServicesReview Source
Gitlab as a DevSecOps platform
I leveraged Gitlab which has a built-in DevSecOps platform to streamline software delivery and security. Using Gitlab's built-in repository management, I created and maintained a CI/CD pipeline defined in .gitlab-ci.yml, which automated the build, test and deployment stages across environments. One of the key advantages was the ease and speed of the pipeline creation which significantly reduced manual effort. Beyond automation, I integrated security testing directly into the pipeline by configuring DSAT, SAST and Secret Detection. This approach was a game changer as it provided a centralized security dashboard to monitor vulnerabilities in real time, eliminating the need to rely on external security tools. - Frontend Engineer<50M USDSoftwareReview Source
Customisable Pipelines and Learning Curve Shape Daily GitLab Repository Experience
We use GitLab on a daily basis and it is where all our repositories are located. The code review process is efficient and we have pipelines setup so that we can know if tests or builds are failing. - Manager, Product Marketing<50M USDReal EstateReview Source
