Overview

This document provides comprehensive security guidelines for the AutoSDLC system, covering agent security, communication encryption, access control, vulnerability management, and compliance requirements. Security is paramount in an autonomous development system that has access to code repositories and development infrastructure.

Security Principles

  1. Zero Trust Architecture: Never trust, always verify
  2. Least Privilege: Minimal permissions for all components
  3. Defense in Depth: Multiple layers of security
  4. Secure by Default: Security enabled out of the box
  5. Continuous Monitoring: Real-time threat detection

Agent Security Guidelines

# Agent Security Guidelines

## 1. Authentication & Authorization
- Always verify agent identity before processing requests
- Use mutual TLS for agent-to-agent communication
- Implement least privilege access control
- Rotate agent credentials regularly

## 2. Code Execution
- Never execute untrusted code directly
- Use sandboxing for all code execution
- Validate all inputs and outputs
- Monitor resource usage

## 3. Data Handling
- Encrypt sensitive data at rest and in transit
- Implement data classification
- Follow data minimization principles
- Ensure secure data deletion

## 4. Communication Security
- Use encrypted channels for all communication
- Implement message integrity checks
- Prevent replay attacks with timestamps
- Monitor for anomalous communication patterns

## 5. Logging & Monitoring
- Log all security-relevant events
- Never log sensitive data
- Implement centralized logging
- Set up real-time alerts

## 6. Incident Response
- Have a clear incident response plan
- Practice incident response procedures
- Maintain incident documentation
- Learn from security incidents
