Can this skill help with PCI or HIPAA compliance?

While it provides deep technical auditing for security vulnerabilities like data exposure and weak encryption, it should be used as a tool to support compliance rather than a final certification.

What frameworks does the Security Expertise skill use?

The skill utilizes the STRIDE threat modeling framework, OWASP Top 10 vulnerability patterns, and CWE analysis to provide a comprehensive security assessment.

Does it check for supply chain vulnerabilities?

Yes, the skill includes checks for dependency and supply chain security to ensure third-party libraries don't introduce known risks into your application.

How are security findings prioritized?

Findings are ranked using a CVSS-aligned indicator system ranging from Critical (9.0-10.0) to Low, ensuring developers address high-impact risks like RCE first.

Security & Testing

Conducts comprehensive security audits and vulnerability scans using OWASP patterns, CWE analysis, and STRIDE threat modeling.

About

The Security Expertise skill transforms Claude into a security auditor capable of identifying complex vulnerabilities and architectural flaws. By utilizing industry-standard frameworks like the STRIDE threat model and OWASP Top 10, it systematically maps attack surfaces, identifies injection points, and evaluates authentication mechanisms. This skill is essential for developers looking to move beyond basic linting to professional-grade security reviews, providing risk-ranked remediation plans that prioritize critical issues like remote code execution and SQL injection.

Key Features

CVSS-aligned severity ranking (Critical to Low) for prioritized remediation

0 GitHub stars
Automated vulnerability detection for SQLi, XSS, and command injection
Cryptographic review for weak algorithms and hardcoded sensitive data
STRIDE-based threat modeling to identify architectural security risks

Use Cases

Mapping the attack surface of new API endpoints and external interfaces
Performing a security-focused code review before merging sensitive PRs
Auditing legacy codebases for compliance with modern OWASP security standards
