Cross-cutting Verification Matrix

The single index of all security verification in SbD-ToE — activity × type × oracle × chapter × risk level — distinguishing testing (behavioural oracle) from analysis/scanning (lookup/policy oracle).

CVE Exceptions Policy

Organisational policy that defines the criteria, the formal process, the approval authorities, the compensating controls and the reassessment deadlines applicable to exceptions to known vulnerabilities (CVEs) in software dependencies, proportional to the application's criticality level (L1, L2, L3).

Dependencies, SBOM and SCA

Principles, practices and controls to guarantee secure dependency management, SBOM generation and automated software composition analysis

Dependencies, SBOM and SCA Requirements Catalogue

Canonical catalogue of security requirements for the management of third-party dependencies (DEP-001 to DEP-010), with applicability by risk level and acceptance criteria for SBOM, SCA, library governance and update policies.

Dependency Management Policy

Organisational policy that defines the criteria for approving, pinning, blocking, auditing and updating external dependencies in software projects, proportional to the application's criticality level (L1, L2, L3), with a focus on reducing supply chain risk and ensuring traceability.

How to Do It

Practical integration of the dependency management, SBOM generation and SCA execution prescriptions throughout the application lifecycle

KPIs and Metrics - Dependencies, SBOM and SCA

Technical and operational indicators for the assessment of the effectiveness of the controls for dependency management, SBOM generation and software composition analysis, with thresholds per risk level and mapping to the cross-cutting SbD-ToE governance dimensions.

Policies

Organisational policies that support the practical application of this chapter

Secure CI/CD Policy

Organisational policy that defines the security requirements for continuous integration and delivery pipelines, including mandatory gates, integrated scanners, environment separation, artefact signing, secrets management in the pipeline and promotion approvals, proportional to the criticality level (L1, L2, L3).

Security Testing Strategy Policy

Organisational policy that defines the requirements for the security testing strategy throughout the application lifecycle, including SAST, DAST, SCA, IAST, fuzzing and manual testing, with mandatory gates, finding triage SLAs and centralised management of results, proportional to the criticality level (L1, L2, L3).
