• 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

**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)
