Security Audit Methodology

This methodology is applied strictly to authorized scopes, public repositories, and environments explicitly permitted by the client, following Coordinated Disclosure principles.

All research follows Coordinated Disclosure principles and focuses on CI/CD, supply-chain, and infrastructure-level risks — without exploitation, disruption, or access to production systems.

PHASE 01

Reconnaissance

Before we run a single script, we map the digital territory. We focus on trust boundaries and hidden entry points.

  • Mapping public-facing assets and DNS records
  • Deep analysis of GitHub Actions & GitLab CI workflows
  • Identifying third-party integrations and webhooks
  • Reviewing baseline IAM policies and access tokens
PHASE 02

Automated Intelligence

Execution of the Auditor Core Baseline v1.0. We deploy our proprietary engine to scan for deep-seated flaws.

  • Automated secret leak detection in history & logs
  • Supply-chain dependency vulnerability analysis
  • Container image and Dockerfile security hardening
  • Identifying misconfigured S3 buckets and databases
PHASE 03

Expert Validation

The human element. We manually verify every automated finding to ensure zero false positives and real impact.

  • Manual validation of identified logic vulnerabilities under controlled and authorized conditions
  • Risk prioritization based on real-world impact and threat models
  • Development of tailored remediation code snippets and configuration fixes
  • Final comprehensive report and technical debriefing session
