CI/CD Pipeline Security
DevSecOps pipeline from code commit to production deployment. Supply chain security is critical as a single compromised build can affect thousands of deployments.
Pipeline Architecture
Modern CI/CD pipeline with supply chain security controls. Each stage represents a potential attack vector for supply chain compromise.
Supply Chain is the New Attack Surface
SolarWinds, Codecov, and Log4Shell showed that compromising build pipelines can have devastating downstream effects. A single malicious commit or poisoned dependency can propagate to thousands of production systems. The Registry is the crown jewel - whoever controls the artifacts controls what runs in production.
Developer Environment
IDE, local secrets, git client. First point of compromise.
Source Control
GitHub/GitLab with branch protection and webhooks.
Build System
CI runners executing untrusted code. High risk zone.
Artifact Registry
Container images and packages. Trust anchor.
Deployment
CD pipeline to Kubernetes. Production gateway.
