Projects

End-to-End DevSecOps Pipeline with Policy Enforcement

Designed and implemented a fully automated DevSecOps CI/CD pipeline integrating SAST, DAST, dependency scanning, and container image scanning into Jenkins pipelines. Integrated tools such as SonarQube, OWASP ZAP, and container vulnerability scanning to detect security issues early in the SDLC. Enforced security gates that blocked deployments on high/critical vulnerabilities, reducing production security risks by over 40%. Implemented Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform) with security validation checks and misconfiguration scanning prior to deployment. Deployed runtime security monitoring for Kubernetes workloads, enabling real-time threat detection and policy enforcement.

Kubernetes Security Hardening & Zero-Trust Architecture Implementation

Hardened Kubernetes-based microservices architecture using RBAC, Network Policies, Pod Security Standards, and secure secret management with Kubernetes Secrets / HashiCorp Vault. Designed zero-trust service-to-service communication using mTLS with Istio, implementing strict ingress and egress traffic controls via Kubernetes Ingress Controller. Implemented observability and monitoring using Prometheus and Grafana, with alerting configured through Alertmanager for proactive incident detection. Integrated centralized logging using the ELK Stack (Elasticsearch, Logstash, Kibana) for security event analysis and audit visibility. Automated security and compliance checks aligned with CIS Kubernetes Benchmarks using tools such as kube-bench, Trivy, and OPA (Open Policy Agent) for policy enforcement.
