SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Establishes a comprehensive, reusable security pattern framework for Go development that reduces security debt by applying OWASP-aligned practices across code, configuration, dependencies, and CI/CD workflows.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • OWASP-aligned patterns: covers Access Control, Data Protection, Input Handling, Secure Design, Configuration, Dependencies, Authentication, Error Handling, Integrity, Logging, External Objects/Requests, and AI-assisted development guidance.
  • Reference implementations: includes code patterns and guidance in the references folder to accelerate secure coding and review processes.
  • CI/CD security hardening: prescribes security linters (e.g., govulncheck, golangci-lint, go vet), tests, and audit pipelines to enforce secure practices end-to-end.

Quick Start

Start by integrating the secure-go skill into your Go projects to enforce OWASP-based security patterns and enable automated checks across your development lifecycle.

FAQPage Schema
How do I apply OWASP Top 10 security patterns in a Go backend project?

Implement OWASP Top 10 patterns in Go by enforcing secure practices across code, configuration, dependencies, and CI/CD workflows. This framework covers access control, input handling, data protection, and authentication for backend projects.

What's the best way to set up Go CI/CD pipelines for vulnerability scanning and linting?

Set up Go CI/CD vulnerability scanning by configuring security linters like govulncheck, golangci-lint, and go vet. These tools enforce automated security checks and audit pipelines throughout your development lifecycle.

How do I enforce secure authentication and data protection in Go microservices?

Enforce secure authentication and data protection in Go microservices by applying OWASP-aligned reference patterns. This guides secure design, input validation, and error handling throughout the development lifecycle.

Does this secure Go development approach require any external dependencies or linter plugins?

This secure Go development approach requires no external dependencies. It uses front-matter, references, and linter configurations to prescribe security linters like govulncheck and golangci-lint for CI/CD hardening.

What is included in secure Go development reference implementations for code review?

Secure Go development reference implementations include code patterns and guidance in the references folder. These cover access control, secure configuration, dependency management, and AI-assisted development guidance to accelerate secure coding.

When do I need OWASP-aligned static analysis and integrity checks for Go APIs?

You need OWASP-aligned static analysis and integrity checks for Go APIs when reducing security debt across development workflows. This enforces safe configuration, vulnerability scanning, and secure coding patterns end-to-end.
