Secure SDLC Documentation Package (Sprint 32)

This package defines how SpectraStrike enforces secure software lifecycle controls as release-gating evidence.

1. Governance Model

• Roadmap-driven delivery and control traceability: docs/ROADMAP.md
• Task-level tracking and status integrity: docs/kanban-board.csv
• Sprint engineering evidence and risk documentation: docs/dev-logs/
• Mandatory QA gate orchestration: docs/manuals/QA_RUNBOOK.md

2. Security Design and Threat Controls

• Threat model and architecture posture:
  • docs/THREAT_MODEL.md
  • docs/WHITEPAPER.md
  • docs/ARCHITECTURE_SECURITY_OVERVIEW.md
• Zero-trust authorization and policy delegation:
  • src/pkg/orchestrator/opa_client.py
  • tests/qa/test_zero_trust_sprint17_qa.py
• Cryptographic execution integrity and anti-repudiation:
  • src/pkg/orchestrator/execution_fingerprint.py
  • src/pkg/orchestrator/merkle_ledger.py
  • src/pkg/orchestrator/anti_repudiation.py

3. Build/Test/Release Security Gates

Minimum release gates:

make policy-check
make test
make security-check
./.venv/bin/python scripts/check_license_headers.py
./.venv/bin/pytest -q tests/qa/test_docs_qa.py

For federation and cognitive integration:

PYTHONPATH=src .venv/bin/pytest -q \
  tests/unit/integration/test_vectorvue_client.py \
  tests/unit/integration/test_vectorvue_rabbitmq_bridge.py \
  tests/qa/test_sprint30_broker_abstraction_throughput_qa.py \
  tests/qa/test_sprint31_cognitive_feedback_loop_qa.py

4. Control Evidence Expectations

Each release candidate must retain:

• command transcript summary
• pass/fail QA snapshot
• blocker and remediation linkage
• architecture and policy drift assessment
• compliance mapping snapshot (docs/compliance/)

5. Supply Chain and Dependency Hygiene

• SBOM and vulnerability scanning are mandatory pre-release controls.
• Tool registry/armory ingestion paths require signing and integrity verification.
• Third-party license boundaries are preserved; local license-header checker applies to in-scope project files only.

6. Roles and Responsibilities

• Engineering: implements sprint scope with tests and control references.
• Security: validates policy/security gate outcomes and threat-model consistency.
• QA: executes runbook and captures blocker evidence with reproducible commands.
• Release owner: approves release only when all mandatory gates pass or accepted risk waiver exists.

7. Scope Notes

• This package documents platform secure development process.
• External certification/audit outcomes depend on deployment context and organizational controls.
