A comprehensive guide to implementing PCI DSS 4.0.1 requirements for organizations handling cardholder data. This skill covers the full compliance lifecycle, from defining the Cardholder Data Environment (CDE) scope and hardening network security, to implementing advanced data encryption, access controls (MFA/RBAC), and continuous monitoring mechanisms.

This comprehensive guide details the deployment of HashiCorp Vault for robust, centralized secrets management in hybrid and multi-cloud environments. It covers configuring dynamic secret engines for databases (PostgreSQL) and cloud providers (AWS), integrating diverse authentication methods (OIDC, AppRole, Kubernetes), and securely delivering short-lived secrets to Kubernetes workloads via agents. The primary goal is to enforce zero-trust principles by eliminating hardcoded, long-lived credentials from application code and CI/CD pipelines.

Use RESTler to automate stateful security testing of REST APIs. It processes OpenAPI specifications to generate fuzzing grammars, allowing users to discover complex bugs, such as injection vulnerabilities, resource leaks, and unhandled exceptions (500 errors), by executing diverse sequences of API calls. Essential for robust CI/CD regression testing and proactive API security assessments.

A comprehensive security auditing tool designed to assess a Kubernetes cluster's compliance posture against established CIS benchmarks. It performs deep checks on control plane components (API Server, etcd, Controller Manager), worker nodes, and Role-Based Access Control (RBAC). Use it for proactive security assessments, compliance validation, and hardening throughout the CI/CD lifecycle.

A comprehensive guide for systematically evaluating Kubernetes cluster security. It simulates advanced attacker techniques against critical components like the API server, etcd, kubelet, RBAC, and network policies, identifying misconfigurations and vulnerabilities. Essential for security auditors, penetration testers, and DevOps teams performing deep cluster security assessments.

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.

This comprehensive guide outlines the end-to-end security lifecycle for Kubernetes applications deployed via Helm. It covers critical topics such as chart provenance verification (GPG signing), template scanning (using tools like kubesec and checkov), enforcing strict security contexts, managing secrets securely (ExternalSecrets), and defining robust RBAC rules for CI/CD pipelines.

This skill provides comprehensive security hardening guidelines for serverless compute platforms like AWS Lambda, Azure Functions, and Google Cloud Functions. It covers essential security pillars including enforcing least privilege IAM roles, integrating robust secrets management (e.g., AWS Secrets Manager), automating dependency vulnerability scanning within CI/CD pipelines, and implementing strict input validation to mitigate risks such as injection and credential theft. Ideal for DevSecOps practitioners and security architects.

This guide outlines the implementation of Remote Browser Isolation (RBI) as a core component of a Zero Trust architecture. It details policies for URL risk classification, Data Loss Prevention (DLP) controls, and Content Disarm and Reconstruction (CDR). This is essential for hardening web access, protecting against zero-day exploits, phishing, and preventing data exfiltration from untrusted web content.

This guide details how to implement secure, keyless software signing using the Sigstore ecosystem components (Cosign, Fulcio, Rekor). It establishes cryptographic provenance for container images and binaries by binding identity via OIDC, ensuring verifiable integrity and tamper-proofing throughout the CI/CD supply chain.

This guide outlines best practices for configuring and securing Adobe API access across Development, Staging, and Production environments. It details the use of separate Developer Console projects, implementing least-privilege OAuth scopes, and integrating robust secret management solutions (GCP Secret Manager, AWS Secrets Manager, HashiCorp Vault) into CI/CD pipelines for secure, scalable deployments.

This guide provides methods for robust monitoring and automation tailored for services deployed on Fly.io. It covers key areas including polling the Machines API to detect state changes, implementing comprehensive health check endpoints, processing structured logs using tools like `jq`, and automating deployment notifications within CI/CD pipelines. Essential for achieving high availability and reliable operations.
