Your question is Automating Security in CI/CD. Take a moment with it on the right.
Talk me through your thinking if you like. When you're confident, submit your answer and I'll grade it like a real screen (7/10 or better passes).
Explain how you would automate a security check within a CI/CD pipeline. Cover where the check runs, how findings are reported, what severity policy determines whether the pipeline fails, and how exceptions are controlled. Keep the answer focused on practical CI/CD automation rather than a specific vendor or application.
