Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Agile and DevOps are widely adopted by the industry. Hence, integrating security activities with industrial practices. such as continuous integration (CI) pipelines, is necessary to detect security flaws and adhere to regulators' demands early. In this paper, we analyze automated security activities in CI pipelines of enterprise-driven open source software (OSS). This shall allow us, in the long-run, to better understand the extent to which security activities are (or should be) part of automated pipelines. In particular, we mine publicly available OSS repositories and survey a sample of project maintainers to better understand the role that security activities and their related tools play in their CI pipelines. To increase transparency and allow other researchers to replicate our study (and to take different perspectives), we further disclose our research artefacts. Our results indicate that security activities in enterprise-driven OSS projects are scarce and protection coverage is rather low. Only 6.83% of the analyzed 8,243 projects apply security automation in their CI pipelines, even though maintainers consider security to be rather important. This alerts industry to keep the focus on vulnerabilities of 3rd Party software and it opens space for other improvements or practice which we outline in this manuscript.

RefA : Reference Architecture for Security-compliant DevOps
- 2023
-
Rapport (refereegranskat)abstract
- This technical report presents RefA, a reference architecture for security-compliant DevOps. RefA consists of a set of models that illustrate the artefacts and practice areas to consider when implementing secure DevOps lifecycles. In addition, RefA describes people, proceses, and technology aspects to be considered in each practice area. Practitioners can use RefA for the purposes of designing and assessing security compliance of their DevOps lifecycles, while researchers may use RefA as a reference for setting up research roadmaps. RefA models result from combining the profound analysis of the IEC 62443-4-1 standard for secure industrial products development, continuous software engineering literature review, and observations made in practice in context of a large industrial company during the past 5 years. The manuscript constitutes original, previously unpublished research.
