[Verse 1]
Back in the day, we'd freeze our code in place
Traditional ATO meant months of waiting space
But DevSecOps demands a faster dance
Continuous monitoring gives systems their chance
The old way locked us down with static walls
Now cATO flows as evolution calls
[Chorus]
Scan, Triage, Remediate, Document the flow
SIEM collects what security needs to know
Drift detection catches when configs roam
Keep your authorization as you build your home
Continuous ATO, never standing still
Evidence automation bends to your will
[Verse 2]
Automated scanners sweep through every layer
Configuration baselines act as the betrayer
When settings shift from their approved design
Access reviews ensure permissions align
No more manual hunts for compliance proof
Digital fingerprints provide the truth
[Chorus]
Scan, Triage, Remediate, Document the flow
SIEM collects what security needs to know
Drift detection catches when configs roam
Keep your authorization as you build your home
Continuous ATO, never standing still
Evidence automation bends to your will
[Bridge]
Correlation rules connect the scattered dots
Retention policies preserve what the law wants
Seven years for some, three for others
Know your data like protective mothers
Vulnerability windows shrink each day
Patch management keeps the wolves at bay
[Verse 3]
When systems evolve, authorization follows
No frozen artifacts in forgotten hollows
Document changes, track every modification
Maintain your blessing through each iteration
The cycle spins: detect, assess, repair
Continuous blessing keeps you in the clear
[Final Chorus]
Scan, Triage, Remediate, Document the flow
SIEM collects what security needs to know
Drift detection catches when configs roam
Keep your authorization as you build your home
Continuous ATO, breathing with the code
Defense that travels down the DevOps road
