What types of security testing does this skill cover?

It covers a comprehensive layered approach including Static Application Security Testing (SAST), Dynamic Analysis (DAST), Software Composition Analysis (SCA), and manual penetration testing.

Does it support OWASP standards?

Absolutely. The skill includes specific guidance and references for testing against the OWASP Top 10 and OWASP API Security standards.

Can this help with CI/CD integration?

Yes, it provides specific patterns and workflows for integrating automated security scans directly into your development and deployment pipelines.

How does it handle false positives in security scans?

It provides a systematic triage process to help developers and security teams validate findings, eliminate false positives, and prioritize remediation based on actual risk.

Security & Testing

Implements comprehensive security testing strategies including SAST, DAST, and vulnerability assessments to secure applications throughout the development lifecycle.

This skill empowers developers to integrate professional-grade security testing into their workflows, covering everything from static analysis (SAST) and dependency scanning (SCA) to dynamic testing (DAST) and manual penetration testing. It provides expert guidance on configuring security pipelines, interpreting vulnerability results, and prioritizing remediation based on risk factors like exploitability and business impact. By following these patterns, teams can effectively 'shift left' their security posture, ensuring that authentication, authorization, and API vulnerabilities are identified and addressed before reaching production.
