deploying-software-defined-perimeter

deploying-software-defined-perimeter is a skill for Claude Code from 26zl/cybersec-toolkit. It costs 44 tokens per session (1,611 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A deployment procedure for a Software-Defined Perimeter, a network design that hides applications from unauthorised users until they authenticate and receive permission.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to configure the perimeter controller and gateway, mutual TLS certificates, Single Packet Authorization, and zero-trust access controls.
Why use it?
It limits access to specific applications and creates encrypted connections between verified users and those applications.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

deploying-software-defined-perimeter scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 8d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/agent.py, scripts/process.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Deploying Software-Defined Perimeter

Prerequisites

  • Understanding of zero trust principles (NIST SP 800-207)
  • Knowledge of CSA Software-Defined Perimeter specification
  • Familiarity with PKI and mutual TLS authentication
  • Experience with network security architecture

Overview

A Software-Defined Perimeter (SDP) implements zero trust by creating a dynamically provisioned, identity-centric perimeter around individual resources. Defined by the Cloud Security Alliance (CSA), SDP makes application infrastructure invisible to unauthorized users through a "dark cloud" approach where services are hidden until authenticated and authorized. Unlike traditional VPN, SDP establishes one-to-one encrypted connections between verified users and specific applications.

This skill covers deploying SDP using the CSA v2.0 specification, implementing Single Packet Authorization (SPA), configuring the SDP controller and gateway, and validating the deployment against NIST SP 800-207 requirements.

When to Use

  • When deploying or configuring deploying software defined perimeter capabilities in your environment
  • When establishing security controls aligned to compliance requirements
  • When building or improving security architecture for this domain
  • When conducting security assessments that require this implementation

Prerequisites

  • Familiarity with zero trust architecture concepts and tools
  • Access to a test or lab environment for safe execution
  • Python 3.8+ with required dependencies installed
  • Appropriate authorization for any testing activities

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

deploying-software-defined-perimeter is a skill published in the GitHub repository 26zl/cybersec-toolkit (54 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 44 tokens to every session and 1,611 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
