## πŸ” Security Scanning Workflows

Multiple security workflows validate different aspects of the CIA project to ensure security and compliance.

    class DR1,DR2,DR3 depend
    class SC1,SC2,SC3,SC4 score
```

### πŸ” CodeQL Analysis Workflow

The CodeQL workflow analyzes code for security vulnerabilities using GitHub's CodeQL engine. It runs on:

- Pull requests to the main branch
- Weekly scheduled scans
- Direct pushes to the main branch

This workflow ensures that vulnerabilities are detected early in the development process, with additional scheduled scans to catch issues that might emerge due to new vulnerability patterns.

### πŸ“¦ Dependency Review

The dependency review workflow scans dependency manifest changes in pull requests to identify potentially vulnerable packages:

- Runs automatically on all pull requests
- Provides PR comments with findings
- Helps prevent introducing new vulnerabilities

### ⭐ Scorecard Analysis

The Scorecard workflow evaluates the project against OSSF security best practices:

- Branch protection rules validation
- Dependency management practices assessment
- Code signing verification
- Supply chain security adherence

Results are uploaded to GitHub's code scanning dashboard for easy visibility and tracking.

## 🏷️ PR Labeler Workflow

This workflow automatically applies labels to pull requests based on configured rules:

```mermaid
flowchart LR
    A[Pull Request] --> B[Checkout Code]
    B --> C[Run Labeler]
    C --> D{File Pattern Match}
    D -->|Documentation changes| E1[Label: documentation]

    D -->|UI changes| E4[Label: ui]
    D -->|Testing changes| E5[Label: testing]

    class A pr
    class B,C process
    class D decision
    class E1,E2,E3,E4,E5 label
```

## πŸ“Š CI/CD Configuration Details

The GitHub Actions workflows use several key configuration patterns:

1. **Hardened Runner Security**: Step Security's harden-runner is used to secure CI/CD pipelines
2. **Egress Policies**: Control outbound network connections from workflows
3. **Explicit Permissions**: Limited, specific permissions for each workflow
4. **Dependency Caching**: Optimizes build times by caching dependencies
5. **Comprehensive Attestations**: SLSA provenance and SBOM attestations for security

## JDK Configuration

The project's workflows are configured to use JDK 21 for building and testing:

```mermaid
graph TD
    A[JDK Configuration] --> B[Java 21]
    B --> C[Temurin Distribution]

    style SBOM fill:#d1c4e9
    style Release fill:#a5d6a7
    style End fill:#a5d6a7
```

### Deployment Gates

**Pre-Deployment Checks:**
- βœ… All quality gates passed
- βœ… Security scans clean (CodeQL)
- βœ… Dependencies reviewed and approved
- βœ… Test coverage meets threshold (β‰₯80% line coverage)
- βœ… Manual approval for version number

**Post-Deployment Validation:**
- βœ… Release artifacts published to GitHub
- βœ… Attestations generated and verified
- βœ… SBOM available for transparency
- βœ… Release notes generated
- βœ… Git tag created

### Version Management

**Versioning Strategy:**
- Manual version input via workflow dispatch
- Semantic versioning (MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH)
- Maven versions plugin for version updates
- Automated version commit to release branch

**Version Update Process:**
```bash
mvn versions:set -DnewVersion="${{ github.event.inputs.release }}" -Pall-modules
mvn versions:commit
```

### Deployment Targets

**GitHub Release:**
- Primary deployment target
- Artifacts published with attestations
- Release notes auto-generated
- Tagged in Git for traceability

**Artifacts Published:**
1. **DEB Package**: `cia-dist-deb-{version}.all.deb`
   - Debian/Ubuntu installation package
   - With build provenance attestation
   - With SBOM attestation

2. **WAR Application**: `citizen-intelligence-agency-{version}.war`
   - Java web application archive
   - With build provenance attestation
   - With SBOM attestation

3. **CloudFormation Template**: `cia-dist-cloudformation.json`

   - Validated by Checkov
   - Ready for AWS deployment

4. **SBOM Files**: `*.spdx.json`
   - Software Bill of Materials
   - SPDX format
   - Complete dependency transparency

### Rollback Strategy

**Rollback Capabilities:**
- Git tag-based version history
- Previous releases available on GitHub
- Immutable release artifacts
- Clear version tracking

**Rollback Procedure:**
1. Identify target rollback version
2. Download artifacts from GitHub release
3. Deploy previous version
4. Verify system health
5. Document rollback reason

### Health Checks

**Post-Deployment Validation:**
- Application startup validation
- Version verification
- Basic functionality tests
- Log monitoring for errors

**Monitoring:**
- GitHub Actions workflow status
- Release artifacts availability
- Attestation verification
- SBOM completeness

- Minimal permissions (principle of least privilege)
- Pinned action versions with SHA256
- Dependency caching security

**Example Hardening:**
```yaml
- name: Harden Runner
  uses: step-security/harden-runner@v2.13.2
  with:
    egress-policy: block
    allowed-endpoints: >
      api.github.com:443
      github.com:443
      maven.apache.org:443
      sonarcloud.io:443
```

**Permission Model:**
```yaml
permissions:
  contents: write        # For checkout and release creation
  security-events: write # For security scanning results
  id-token: write        # For SLSA provenance
  attestations: write    # For artifact attestations
  packages: write        # For package publishing
```

## Mermaid Diagram Support

GitHub natively supports Mermaid diagrams in Markdown files. The diagrams in this documentation leverage this support to visually represent workflows using the Mermaid syntax, enabling:

- Visual representation of workflow relationships
- Clear process documentation
- Easier onboarding for new contributors

For more information about Mermaid syntax and capabilities, see the [Mermaid documentation](https://mermaid.js.org/).
