# Security Audit Workflow
Comprehensive security assessment process.
## Phase 1: Threat Assessment
**Agents:** `security-auditor`
Scope:
- Authentication & authorization
- Data protection
- API security
- Dependency vulnerabilities
- Infrastructure security
**Output:** Threat model, risk assessment, priority list
## Phase 2: Automated Scanning
**Agents:** `security-auditor`
Tools to run:
- Dependency check (npm audit, pip-audit, cargo audit)
- Static analysis (semgrep, bandit, etc.)
- Secret scanning (trufflehog, gitleaks)
**Output:** Vulnerability report with severity ratings
## Phase 3: Manual Code Review
**Agents:** `security-auditor`
Focus areas:
- Input validation
- Output encoding
- Authentication logic
- Authorization checks
- Cryptography usage
- Session management
## Phase 4: Penetration Testing
**Agents:** `security-auditor`
Test for:
- SQL injection
- XSS attacks
- CSRF attacks
- Authentication bypass
- Privilege escalation
## Phase 5: Remediation Planning
**Agents:** `requirements-analyst`
- Create fix tasks from vulnerability report
- Prioritize by severity
- Estimate timeline
- Allocate resources
## Phase 6: Fix Implementation
**Blocking:** Validation required before proceeding
## Phase 7: Security Validation
**Agents:** `security-auditor`
- Retest all identified vulnerabilities
- Regression checks
- Verify fixes don't introduce new issues
## Phase 8: Documentation
**Agents:** `technical-writer`
- Security audit report
- Compliance documentation
- Security best practices guide
## Phase 9: Compliance Check
**Agents:** `security-auditor`
Standards:
- OWASP Top 10
- GDPR (if applicable)
- SOC2 (if applicable)
- HIPAA (if applicable)
## Success Criteria
- [ ] All critical vulnerabilities fixed
- [ ] All high vulnerabilities fixed
- [ ] Compliance requirements met
- [ ] Security tests pass
## Severity Levels
| Level | Response Time | Examples |
|-------|---------------|----------|
| Critical | Immediate | RCE, auth bypass, data breach |
| High | 24-48h | SQL injection, privilege escalation |
| Medium | 1 week | XSS, CSRF, information disclosure |
| Low | Next sprint | Best practice violations |
