Hello, I'm Saulius — Welcome to The Secure Commit

Hey there 👋

I’m Saulius Eidukas, a Senior DevSecOps Engineer based in Stockholm, Sweden. After years of helping teams secure their pipelines, cloud environments, and development workflows — I decided it’s time to share more publicly.

This blog, ssec: The Secure Commit, is where I’ll write about what I know (and keep learning) around:

• 🔒 DevSecOps best practices
• ☁️ Cloud security (especially Azure)
• 🛠️ Secure CI/CD pipeline design
• 📦 Tooling like GitHub Advanced Security, Defender for Cloud, SonarQube, etc.
• 👥 Building a security culture within teams — not just shipping tools

---

🎯 Why this blog?

Because secure development shouldn’t be an afterthought.
It should be the default.

Too often, security is seen as a blocker — my goal is to help shift that perception and show how security can empower developers, not slow them down. Whether it's automating risk reduction, embedding checks in CI/CD, or creating better onboarding/offboarding flows — we can build systems that are secure by design.

🔄 What to expect here

I’ll be sharing:

• How-tos and guides from real projects
• Playbooks and detections (starting with GitHub + Azure)
• Thoughts on DevSecOps culture, mindset, and what works
• Maybe the occasional rant or meme 🙃
