For your pipeline to comply with security best practices, you can add a task to ensure that all the steps in the Application Security Checklist are performed. For customers on Pega Platform 8.4 and above, a new Security Checklist API is available to provide an automated security configuration assessment. Both candidate and orchestrator environments should be on or above Deployment Manager 4.8 to utilize this functionality.

   • Click a task, click the More icon, and then click either Add task above or Add task below.
   • Click Add task in the stage.

2. In the Task list, click Verify Security checklist.
