Security in DevSecOps: Applying Tools and Machine Learning to Verification and Monitoring Steps
SUNRISE technical partners XLAB recently had a short paper published in the conference proceedings of the 2023 ACM/SPEC International Conference on Performance Engineering hosted by the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM).
This paper presents a computer component called LOMOS which is being implemented in the SUNRISE project’s tool for cyber-physical resilience. You can find a summarised version of the paper in our blog post here which introduces LOMOS and its key function and process.
Abstract:
Security represents one of the crucial concerns when it comes to DevOps methodology-empowered software development and service delivery process. Considering the adoption of Infrastructure as Code (IaC), even minor flaws could potentially cause fatal consequences, especially in sensitive domains such as healthcare and maritime applications. However, most of the existing solutions tackle either Static Application Security Testing (SAST) or run-time behavior analysis distinctly. In this paper, we propose a) IaC Scan Runner, an open-source solution developed in Python for inspecting a variety of state-of-the-art IaC languages in application design time and b) the run time anomaly detection tool called LOMOS. Both tools work in synergy and provide a valuable contribution to a DevSecOps tool set. The proposed approach is demonstrated and their results will be demonstrated on various case studies showcasing the capabilities of static analysis tool IaC Scan Runner combined with LOMOS – log analysis artificial intelligence-enabled framework.
