Summary

Harness SCS has introduced Repo Security Posture Management (RSPM) as a new feature to enhance the security of software supply chains by identifying misconfigurations and vulnerabilities in code repositories. Originally focused on mitigating risks from open-source software (OSS) dependencies, Harness SCS now extends its capabilities to code repositories, which are susceptible to attacks due to inadequate access controls and improper configurations. By integrating with major Git providers, the RSPM feature conducts comprehensive scans against industry standards like the CIS Software Supply Chain Security Benchmark and OWASP Top-10 CI/CD Security Risks, allowing organizations to pinpoint security issues and comply with these frameworks. The system provides detailed assessments, lists rule violations, and offers a filterable listing of dependencies, aiming to bolster the security posture of applications' codebases and deployment pipelines.
