Automating Security Scans for Ansible, Python & Containers in GitHub Actions

Security in DevOps is not optional! In this video, I’ll show you how to automate security scanning for Ansible, Python, and container images within a single GitHub Actions workflow. This end-to-end security pipeline will catch vulnerabilities before they reach production, ensuring your deployments are safe and compliant.

We’ll cover:
✅ Setting up GitHub Actions for automated security checks
✅ Ansible Lint to ensure best practices in YAML playbooks
✅ Pylint & Bandit to detect Python code issues and security flaws
✅ Trivy to scan container images for vulnerabilities
✅ How to fail the CI/CD pipeline if security vulnerabilities are found
✅ Uploading reports to Artifactory for detailed analysis

By the end of this video, you’ll have a fully automated security-first CI/CD pipeline that prevents insecure code and images from being deployed.
