The Nx build system was hit by a supply chain attack dubbed “s1ngularity,” leaking thousands of secrets and exploiting AI tools for data theft.

GitProtect.io’s Mid-Year 2025 DevOps Threats Unwrapped report reveals a surge in disruptions across GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, Jira, and Azure DevOps — with 330 incidents in just six months. Rising outages, ransomware, and source code theft show that DevOps uptime and cybersecurity resilience are now inseparable priorities for global enterprises.

Generative AI accelerates software delivery but also reintroduces vulnerabilities, making secure coding practices, oversight, and developer training essential for safe adoption.

DevOps automation is shifting from complex, monolithic pipelines to lean, modular, AI-enhanced workflows—driving efficiency, cost savings, and better developer experience.

Onboarding AI agents is no longer optional—DevOps must treat them like new engineers, with guardrails, observability, and lifecycle management to prevent operational debt.

System Initiative introduces autonomous AI agents to its infrastructure automation platform, using digital twins to help DevOps teams safely optimize and manage IT environments.

Qwiet AI extends its AI-driven application security platform with deeper Microsoft DevOps integrations, enhanced automation, and expanded AutoFix capabilities to proactively remediate code vulnerabilities.

Shadow AI is the new shadow IT—slipping into organizations unseen, reshaping workflows and decisions before leadership realizes it exists.

Broadcom today at the VMware Explore 2025 conference unfurled a set of developer services for the instance of Kubernetes it has embedded into its VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) platform that includes the Argo continuous delivery (CD) platform. At the same time, Broadcom expanded its alliance with Canonical to include enterprise-grade support for instances of VCF

Let’s cut to the chase: no, it can’t. Not now. Not anytime soon. In my experience working with engineering teams across industries, I’ve seen just how fast cloud infrastructure is evolving. Automation and AI are certainly becoming more embedded in daily workflows. And yes, they can take over certain tasks, especially the tedious, repetitive ones.
