Binary Authorization is a critical Google Cloud security control that enforces policy-based deployment rules. It mandates that only container images with valid cryptographic attestations (proof of successful vulnerability scanning, code reviews, etc.) can be deployed to GKE or Cloud Run. Use this guide to establish robust supply chain security and compliance controls for your cloud-native applications.

This skill guides the implementation and maintenance of compliance controls for North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) Critical Infrastructure Protection (CIP) standards. It covers key areas including asset categorization (CIP-002), electronic security perimeters (CIP-005), system security management (CIP-007), and supply chain risk management. Use this when auditing, updating, or establishing compliance measures for Bulk Electric System (BES) cyber assets.

A comprehensive guide for analyzing firmware images from embedded systems, IoT devices, routers, and specialized components like UEFI/BIOS. This skill covers advanced techniques including filesystem extraction, binary reverse engineering (using Ghidra/IDA), rootkit detection, and deep forensic analysis to uncover backdoors, implants, and supply chain compromises. Essential for cybersecurity professionals investigating compromised hardware.

This skill simulates and detects critical software supply chain attacks, including typosquatting via Levenshtein distance, dependency confusion detection against private registries, and package integrity verification using SHA-256 hashing. It also performs comprehensive vulnerability scanning against known CVEs using pip-audit. It is essential for security assessments, compliance audits, and incident response when validating software component trustworthiness.

This skill guides the implementation of comprehensive security controls for container registries. It details workflows for vulnerability scanning using Trivy and Grype, generating Software Bill of Materials (SBOMs) with Syft, and enforcing image authenticity using Cosign and Sigstore. It is essential for building robust CI/CD pipelines and preventing supply chain attacks by ensuring only scanned, signed, and compliant images are deployed.

A comprehensive guide for securing container images and runtime environments. Covers best practices from Dockerfile authoring (minimal base images, multi-stage builds, non-root users) through advanced runtime enforcement (seccomp, AppArmor) and Kubernetes security controls. Essential for production hardening and maintaining supply chain integrity.

Trivy is an open-source, comprehensive scanner used to find vulnerabilities (CVEs), misconfigurations, secrets, and license issues across multiple targets. It is essential for implementing 'shift-left' security gates in CI/CD pipelines, scanning container images, Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) like Terraform/Kubernetes, and generating/re-scanning SBOMs for supply chain transparency.
