AI BOM and Model Supply Chain Policy

Organisational policy that defines the treatment of AI models, datasets, MCP servers/tools, embedded prompts and AI providers as an auditable supply chain — AI BOM generation per build in a standardised format (CycloneDX 1.6 ml-bom), version pinning, a list of approved providers and response to upstream incidents, complementing Policy 10 (dependencies) and Policy 11 (SBOM), proportionate to the criticality level (L1, L2, L3).

Automatic Dependency Update Policy

Organisational policy that defines the requirements for operating automatic dependency update bots, including auto-merge criteria, impact analysis, human handoff and configuration proportional to the application's criticality level (L2, L3).

Containers and Images Requirements Catalogue

Canonical catalogue of security requirements for containers and images (CNT-001 to CNT-012), with applicability by risk level and acceptance criteria for the selection of base images, hardening, signing, scanning, runtime policies and access to registries.

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

How to apply the prescribed container security practices throughout the development and operations lifecycle

How to Do It

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

Infrastructure as Code Requirements Catalogue

Canonical catalogue of security requirements for IaC projects (IAC-001 to IAC-013), organised by risk level, with acceptance criteria for the governance of repositories, pipelines, state, modules and configuration drift.

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.

Module Governance and Secure Reuse

Prescriptive practices for the governance, validation and control of reusable modules in IaC, ensuring security, provenance and traceability.

Policies

Organisational policies required to guarantee the security, traceability and governance of containers and images throughout the lifecycle.

SBOM (Software Bill of Materials) Policy

Organisational policy that defines the requirements for the generation, format, signing, provenance, archiving and retention of SBOMs (Software Bill of Materials) in software, container and IaC builds, proportional to the application's criticality level (L1, L2, L3).
