Codesec Goat

A security testbed, vulnerable by design for testing codesec pipeline solutions.

Why "goat"?

A common saying is that if your fence won't hold water, it won't hold a goat. Animals are very creative, and will find a way around your barriers. In the same funny analogy, a goat repo demonstrates creativity and deliberate security issues that you might not expect.

Repo Breakdown

Includes a combination of:

• Secrets, access control, hardcoding across many providers and systems
• 3rd party services
• 3rd party vendors + misconfiguration
• Non programming language assets
• Out of band assets (such as binary data)
• By-design overhead (large projects)
• Developer workflows: CI, pre-commit
• Extensibility and customizations

Designed to test and showcase:

• Coverage and value for sensitive, high risk, access control data
• High cloud services scenarios
• High open source usage integration scenarios
• Code security as a whole (full asset scan)
• Speed and efficiency of complex scans
• Ease of integration and developer experience
