Automates comprehensive security scanning by integrating SAST (Semgrep), DAST (OWASP ZAP), SCA (Trivy), and secrets detection (Gitleaks) into CI/CD pipelines. This solution helps organizations shift security left, detect vulnerabilities early, and meet strict compliance mandates such as SOC 2, PCI-DSS, and ISO 27001.

This guide details how to implement coverage-guided fuzz testing using AFL++ within CI/CD pipelines. It covers building the fuzzing harness, utilizing advanced instrumentation (like AddressSanitizer), and configuring automated runs to discover memory corruption and input handling vulnerabilities in compiled applications. Ideal for strengthening DevSecOps practices and ensuring code reliability.

This guide details the implementation of GCP Binary Authorization, a crucial deploy-time security control. It ensures that only trusted, verified container images are deployed on GKE or Cloud Run by requiring cryptographic attestations. Learn how to set up KMS-backed attestors, configure policies, and integrate the validation process into your CI/CD pipeline to enforce robust supply chain integrity.

Utilizes GitHub Advanced Security (GHAS) and CodeQL to implement comprehensive SAST across enterprise repositories. This solution automates static analysis, detecting vulnerabilities (e.g., SQL injection, XSS) and secrets at scale, enabling true 'shift-left' security by integrating checks directly into pull request workflows and CI/CD pipelines.

Automate security scanning for Infrastructure as Code (IaC) using best-in-class tools like Checkov and tfsec. This method analyzes Terraform, CloudFormation, and Kubernetes manifests to detect misconfigurations, enforce policy-based governance, and prevent common security vulnerabilities (e.g., public S3 buckets) before deployment. Essential for establishing secure CI/CD pipelines and meeting compliance standards.

This skill covers the comprehensive design and implementation of network segmentation using layered security controls. It details how to establish isolated security zones (e.g., DMZ, PCI CDE, Management) using VLANs, firewall zones, and granular ACLs. The techniques advance from traditional Layer 2 VLAN separation to modern Layer 7 microsegmentation, enforcing zero-trust principles and meeting strict compliance standards like PCI DSS and HIPAA.

This skill guides organizations in implementing and managing security controls required by PCI DSS 4.0.1. It covers the 12 requirements across 6 control objectives for protecting cardholder data that is stored, processed, or transmitted. Use this when scoping a Cardholder Data Environment (CDE), enhancing security architecture, or preparing for mandatory PCI compliance assessments, including customized validation and MFA implementation.

This guide details implementing Policy-as-Code using Open Policy Agent (OPA) and Gatekeeper. It covers writing complex Rego policies, deploying OPA Gatekeeper as a Kubernetes admission controller, and integrating policy testing into CI/CD pipelines to enforce security standards across clusters. Ideal for DevSecOps practitioners requiring robust governance.

This skill guides the implementation of Gitleaks for robust secret scanning across development lifecycles. It covers setting up pre-commit hooks to prevent secrets from being committed, integrating scanning into CI/CD pipelines (like GitHub Actions), and writing custom regex rules to detect and remediate hardcoded credentials (API keys, passwords, tokens) in Git history, ensuring adherence to secure SDLC practices.

A comprehensive guide to deploying HashiCorp Vault for centralized secrets management. Learn how to handle dynamic secret generation for databases and cloud providers, manage PKI, and integrate securely with Kubernetes. This solution is critical for eliminating hardcoded credentials from application code and CI/CD pipelines, enforcing zero-trust principles, and migrating to short-lived, auto-rotated secrets.

This skill guides the integration of gitleaks and trufflehog into CI/CD pipelines. It automates the detection of hardcoded secrets, such as API keys, passwords, and tokens, preventing their accidental deployment. By integrating scans as a mandatory pre-deployment gate, organizations enforce strong security policies and maintain compliance.

This guide details how to integrate OWASP ZAP (Zed Attack Proxy) into CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions/GitLab) for comprehensive Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST). It covers configuring baseline, full, and API scans to identify common vulnerabilities like XSS, SQLi, and CSRF in running web applications and REST/GraphQL APIs, ensuring security quality gates in the development lifecycle.
