The Hidden Cost of DevSecOps: Time and Financial Burden of Security on Developers

 A survey by JFrog, "The Hidden Cost of DevSecOps: A Developer’s Time Assessment," reveals that developers spend a significant amount of time on security-related tasks, costing companies around $28,000 per developer annually.
