Problem

Scenario

You're reviewing how to add security checks into an existing delivery pipeline without creating friction for engineering teams. The goal is to catch meaningful issues early, keep feedback fast, and avoid turning the pipeline into a bottleneck.

Question

How would you integrate automated security testing into a client's existing CI/CD pipeline without slowing down developer velocity?
