## Core Competencies

### Vulnerability Assessment
- OWASP Top 10
- CWE/CVE analysis
- SAST/DAST techniques
- Dependency scanning

### Secure Development
- Secure coding standards
- Threat modeling
- Security architecture
- Cryptographic best practices

### Compliance
- SOC 2
- GDPR
- HIPAA
- PCI DSS

### Operations Security
- Secrets management
- Access control
- Logging and monitoring
- Incident response

## OWASP Top 10 (2021) Checklist

### A01: Broken Access Control

```markdown
**Check for:**
- [ ] Missing authorization checks on endpoints
- [ ] IDOR (Insecure Direct Object References)
- [ ] Privilege escalation paths
- [ ] CORS misconfigurations
- [ ] JWT validation bypass
- [ ] Missing function-level access control

**Code patterns to find:**
```bash
# Missing auth middleware
grep -r "router\.\(get\|post\|put\|delete\)" --include="*.ts" | grep -v "auth"

# Direct object access without ownership check
grep -r "findById\|findOne" --include="*.ts" -A 5
```

**Remediation:**
- Deny by default
- Implement centralized access control
- Log access control failures
- Rate limit API access
```

### A02: Cryptographic Failures

```markdown
**Check for:**
- [ ] Sensitive data transmitted in cleartext
- [ ] Weak cryptographic algorithms (MD5, SHA1, DES)
- [ ] Hardcoded encryption keys
- [ ] Missing encryption at rest
- [ ] Weak password hashing

**Code patterns to find:**
```bash
# Weak hashing
grep -rE "md5|sha1|DES|RC4" --include="*.ts" --include="*.js"

# Hardcoded secrets
grep -rE "(password|secret|key|token)\s*[:=]\s*['\"][^'\"]+['\"]" --include="*.ts"

# Cleartext protocols
grep -rE "http://|ftp://" --include="*.ts" --include="*.yaml"
```

**Remediation:**
- Use TLS 1.3 for transit
- AES-256-GCM for symmetric encryption
- bcrypt/argon2 for passwords
- Proper key management (Vault, KMS)
```

### A03: Injection

```markdown
**Check for:**
- [ ] SQL injection
- [ ] NoSQL injection
- [ ] Command injection
- [ ] LDAP injection
- [ ] XPath injection
- [ ] Template injection

**Code patterns to find:**
```bash
# SQL injection
grep -rE "query\(.*\+|execute\(.*\+|raw\(.*\$" --include="*.ts"

# Command injection
grep -rE "exec\(|spawn\(|execSync\(" --include="*.ts"

# Template injection
grep -rE "eval\(|new Function\(" --include="*.ts"
```

**Remediation:**
- Use parameterized queries
- Input validation and sanitization
- Allowlist approach for allowed characters
- ORM/ODM properly
```

### A04: Insecure Design

```markdown
**Check for:**
- [ ] Missing threat modeling
- [ ] No security requirements
- [ ] Unsafe business logic
- [ ] Missing rate limiting
- [ ] Lack of defense in depth

**Design review questions:**
- What are the trust boundaries?
- How is authentication handled?
- What data is sensitive?
- What are the attack vectors?
```

### A05: Security Misconfiguration

```markdown
**Check for:**
- [ ] Default credentials
- [ ] Unnecessary features enabled
- [ ] Verbose error messages
- [ ] Missing security headers
- [ ] Outdated software
- [ ] Debug mode in production

**Code patterns to find:**
```bash
# Debug mode
grep -rE "debug.*true|DEBUG.*=.*1" --include="*.env*" --include="*.yaml"

# Default credentials
grep -rE "admin|password|123456|default" --include="*.env*"

# Missing security headers
grep -rE "helmet|X-Frame-Options|Content-Security-Policy" --include="*.ts"
```

**Required headers:**
```typescript
// Security headers
app.use(helmet({
  contentSecurityPolicy: true,
  crossOriginEmbedderPolicy: true,
  crossOriginOpenerPolicy: true,
  crossOriginResourcePolicy: true,
  dnsPrefetchControl: true,
  frameguard: true,
  hidePoweredBy: true,
  hsts: true,
  ieNoOpen: true,
  noSniff: true,
  originAgentCluster: true,
  permittedCrossDomainPolicies: true,
  referrerPolicy: true,
  xssFilter: true,
}));
```
```

### A06: Vulnerable Components

```markdown
**Check for:**
- [ ] Outdated dependencies
- [ ] Known vulnerabilities in packages
- [ ] Unmaintained libraries
- [ ] Unnecessary dependencies

**Scanning commands:**
```bash
# npm audit
npm audit

# Snyk
snyk test

# OWASP Dependency Check
dependency-check --project MyProject --scan .

# Check for outdated
npm outdated
```

**Remediation:**
- Regular dependency updates
- Automated vulnerability scanning in CI
- Remove unused dependencies
- Pin dependency versions
```

### A07: Authentication Failures

```markdown
**Check for:**
- [ ] Weak password requirements
- [ ] Missing brute force protection
- [ ] Session fixation
- [ ] Improper session invalidation
- [ ] Credential stuffing vulnerability
- [ ] Missing MFA option

**Code patterns to find:**
```bash
# Password policy
grep -rE "password.*length|minLength.*[0-5]" --include="*.ts"

# Session handling
grep -rE "session|cookie" --include="*.ts" -A 3

# Rate limiting on auth endpoints
grep -rE "login|signin|authenticate" --include="*.ts" -B 5
```

**Remediation:**
- Strong password policy (12+ chars, complexity)
- Account lockout after failed attempts
- MFA implementation
- Secure session management
- Proper logout (invalidate session)
```

### A08: Software and Data Integrity

```markdown
**Check for:**
- [ ] CI/CD pipeline security
- [ ] Unsigned code/updates
- [ ] Untrusted deserialization
- [ ] Missing integrity checks
- [ ] Insecure plugin/extension loading

**Code patterns to find:**
```bash
# Deserialization
grep -rE "JSON\.parse|deserialize|pickle\.load|yaml\.load" --include="*.ts" --include="*.py"

# Dynamic imports
grep -rE "require\(.*\+|import\(.*\+" --include="*.ts"
```

**Remediation:**
- Sign all releases
- Verify checksums
- Use SRI for CDN resources
- Validate serialized data
```
