# 🔒 Security Implementation Summary ## ✅ Implemented Features ### SAST (Static Application Security Testing) - ✅ **ESLint Security Plugin**: Scans for code vulnerabilities - ✅ **Semgrep**: Advanced static analysis with security rules - ✅ **NPM Audit**: Dependency vulnerability scanning - ✅ **Snyk**: Commercial-grade security scanning (optional) - ✅ **Docker Security**: Trivy & Dockle for container scanning ### DAST (Dynamic Application Security Testing) - ✅ **OWASP ZAP Baseline**: Quick security scanning - ✅ **OWASP ZAP Full Scan**: Comprehensive penetration testing ### Automation - ✅ **GitHub Actions Workflow**: Runs on every push/PR - ✅ **Scheduled Scans**: Daily security checks at 2 AM - ✅ **Pre-commit Hook**: Catches issues before commit - ✅ **Local Testing Script**: `./scripts/security-check.sh` ### Security Checks - ✅ SQL Injection detection - ✅ XSS (Cross-Site Scripting) detection - ✅ Hardcoded credentials detection - ✅ Vulnerable dependency detection - ✅ Security misconfigurations - ✅ Sensitive data exposure - ✅ Authentication/session issues - ✅ Remote code execution risks ## 🚀 Quick Start ### Run Local Security Scan ```bash ./scripts/security-check.sh ``` ### Run Backend Security Checks ```bash cd backend npm run security:check ``` ### Run Frontend Security Checks ```bash cd frontend npm run security:check ``` ## 📊 Continuous Monitoring Security scans run automatically: 1. **On every push** to main/develop branches 2. **On every pull request** 3. **Daily at 2 AM** (scheduled) 4. **Before every commit** (pre-commit hook) ## 📁 Key Files ``` .github/workflows/security-scan.yml # GitHub Actions workflow .zap/rules.tsv # OWASP ZAP rules backend/.eslintrc.js # Backend security linting frontend/.eslintrc.js # Frontend security linting scripts/security-check.sh # Local security testing .git/hooks/pre-commit # Pre-commit security hook docs/SECURITY_TESTING.md # Detailed documentation ``` ## 🔍 What Gets Scanned ### Code (SAST) - SQL injection vulnerabilities - XSS vulnerabilities - Command injection - Unsafe regular expressions - Eval usage - Hardcoded secrets - Insecure randomness - Path traversal - Authentication bypasses ### Dependencies - Known CVEs in npm packages - Outdated dependencies - License compliance issues ### Docker Images - Base image vulnerabilities - Misconfigurations - Best practice violations ### Running Application (DAST) - Authentication flaws - Session management - Security headers - HTTPS/TLS configuration - CSRF protection - Cookie security - Input validation - API security ## 📈 Viewing Results ### GitHub Interface 1. Go to **Actions** tab → **Security Testing** workflow 2. Go to **Security** tab → **Code scanning** 3. Download **Artifacts** for detailed reports ### Local Output ```bash ./scripts/security-check.sh # Outputs color-coded results with actionable insights ``` ## ⚙️ Rate Limiting Implementation Comprehensive API rate limiting protects all endpoints: - **Authentication**: 5 requests / 15 minutes - **Modifications**: 30 requests / 15 minutes - **Read Operations**: 100 requests / 15 minutes - **Heavy Operations**: 10 requests / 15 minutes - **Backups**: 3 requests / hour - **General API**: 200 requests / 15 minutes ## 🛡️ Security Best Practices 1. **Never commit secrets** - Use environment variables 2. **Review alerts promptly** - Check GitHub Security tab 3. **Keep dependencies updated** - Run `npm audit fix` 4. **Test before pushing** - Use local security script 5. **Review scan reports** - Download and analyze artifacts ## 📚 Documentation Full documentation: `docs/SECURITY_TESTING.md` ## 🎯 Next Steps 1. Set up Snyk token in GitHub Secrets (optional) 2. Review and customize `.zap/rules.tsv` for your needs 3. Run initial security scan: `./scripts/security-check.sh` 4. Monitor GitHub Security tab for alerts 5. Schedule time to review weekly security reports
