Software Security & AppSec â Quick Reference

Production-grade security patterns for building secure applications in Jan 2026. Covers OWASP Top 10:2025 (stable) https://owasp.org/Top10/2025/ plus OWASP API Security Top 10 (2023) https://owasp.org/API-Security/ and secure SDLC baselines (NIST SSDF) https://csrc.nist.gov/publications/detail/sp/800-218/final.

When to Use This Skill

Activate this skill when:

Implementing authentication or authorization systems
Handling user input that could lead to injection attacks (SQL, XSS, command injection)
Designing secure APIs or web applications
Working with cryptographic operations or sensitive data storage
Conducting security reviews, threat modeling, or vulnerability assessments
Responding to security incidents or compliance audit requirements
Building systems that must comply with OWASP, NIST, PCI DSS, GDPR, HIPAA, or SOC 2
Integrating third-party dependencies (supply chain security review)
Implementing zero trust architecture or modern cloud-native security patterns
Establishing or improving secure SDLC gates (threat modeling, SAST/DAST, dependency scanning)

When NOT to Use This Skill

General backend development without security focus â use software-backend
Infrastructure/cloud security (IAM, network security, container hardening) â use ops-devops-platform
Smart contract auditing as primary focus â use software-crypto-web3
ML model security (adversarial attacks, data poisoning) â use ai-mlops
Compliance-only questions without implementation â consult compliance team directly

Quick Reference Table

Security Task	Tool/Pattern	Implementation	When to Use
Primary Auth	Passkeys/WebAuthn	`navigator.credentials.create()`	New apps (2026+), phishing-resistant, broad platform support
Password Storage	bcrypt/Argon2	`bcrypt.hash(password, 12)`	Legacy auth fallback (never store plaintext)
Input Validation	Allowlist regex	`/^[a-zA-Z0-9_]{3,20}$/`	All user input (SQL, XSS, command injection prevention)
SQL Queries	Parameterized queries	`db.execute(query, [userId])`	All database operations (prevent SQL injection)
API Authentication	OAuth 2.1 + PKCE	`oauth.authorize({ code_challenge })`	Third-party auth, API access (deprecates implicit flow)
Token Auth	JWT (short-lived)	`jwt.sign(payload, secret, { expiresIn: '15m' })`	Stateless APIs (always validate, 15-30 min expiry)
Data Encryption	AES-256-GCM	`crypto.createCipheriv('aes-256-gcm')`	Sensitive data at rest (PII, financial, health)
HTTPS/TLS	TLS 1.3	Force HTTPS redirects	All production traffic (data in transit)
Access Control	RBAC/ABAC	`requireRole('admin', 'moderator')`	Resource authorization (APIs, admin panels)
Rate Limiting	express-rate-limit	`limiter({ windowMs: 15min, max: 100 })`	Public APIs, auth endpoints (DoS prevention)
Security Requirements	OWASP ASVS	Choose L1/L2/L3	Security requirements baseline + test scope

Authentication Decision Matrix (Jan 2026)

Method	Use Case	Token Lifetime	Security Level	Notes
Passkeys/WebAuthn	Primary auth (2026+)	N/A (cryptographic)	Highest	Phishing-resistant, broad platform support
OAuth 2.1 + PKCE	Third-party auth	5-15 min access	High	Replaces implicit flow, mandatory PKCE
Session cookies	Traditional web apps	30 min – 4 hrs	Medium-High	HttpOnly, Secure, SameSite=Strict
JWT stateless	APIs, microservices	15-30 min	Medium	Always validate signature, short expiry
API keys	Machine-to-machine	Long-lived	Low-Medium	Rotate regularly, scope permissions

Jurisdiction notes (verify): Authentication assurance requirements vary by country, industry, and buyer. Prefer passkeys/FIDO2; treat SMS OTP as recovery-only/low assurance unless you can justify it.

Security ROI & Business Value (Jan 2026)

Security investment justification and compliance-driven revenue. Full framework: references/security-business-value.md

Quick Breach Cost Reference

Indicative figures (source: IBM Cost of a Data Breach 2024; refresh for current year): https://www.ibm.com/reports/data-breach

Metric	Global Avg	US Avg	Impact
Avg breach cost	$4.88M	$9.36M	Budget justification baseline
Cost per record	$165	$194	Data classification priority
Detection time	204 days	191 days	SIEM/monitoring ROI
DevSecOps adoption	-$1.68M	-34%	Shift-left justification
IR team	-$2.26M	-46%	Highest ROI control

Compliance â Enterprise Sales

Certification	Deals Unlocked	Sales Impact
SOC 2 Type II	$100K+ enterprise	Typically reduces security questionnaire friction
ISO 27001	$250K+ EU enterprise	Preferred vendor status
HIPAA	Healthcare vertical	Market access
FedRAMP	$1M+ government	US gov market entry

ROI Formula (Quick Reference)

Security ROI = (Risk Reduction - Investment) / Investment Ã 100

Risk Reduction = Breach Probability Ã Avg Cost Ã Control Effectiveness
Example: 15% Ã $4.88M Ã 46% = $337K/year risk reduction

Incident Response Patterns (Jan 2026)

Security Incident Playbook

Phase	Actions
Detect	Alert fires, user report, automated scan
Contain	Isolate affected systems, revoke compromised credentials
Investigate	Collect logs, determine scope, identify root cause
Remediate	Patch vulnerability, rotate secrets, update defenses
Recover	Restore services, verify fixes, update monitoring
Learn	Post-mortem, update playbooks, share lessons

Security Logging Requirements

What to Log	Format	Retention
Authentication events	JSON with correlation ID	90 days minimum
Authorization failures	JSON with user context	90 days minimum
Data access (sensitive)	JSON with resource ID	1 year minimum
Security scan results	SARIF format	1 year minimum

Do:

Include correlation IDs across services
Log to SIEM (Splunk, Datadog, ELK)
Mask PII in logs

Avoid:

Logging passwords, tokens, or keys
Unstructured log formats
Missing timestamps or context

Common Security Mistakes

FAIL Bad Practice	PASS Correct Approach	Risk
`query = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE id=" + userId`	`db.execute("SELECT * FROM users WHERE id=?", [userId])`	SQL injection
Storing passwords in plaintext or MD5	`bcrypt.hash(password, 12)` or Argon2	Credential theft
`res.send(userInput)` without encoding	`res.send(DOMPurify.sanitize(userInput))`	XSS
Hardcoded API keys in source code	Environment variables + secrets manager	Secret exposure
`Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *`	Explicit origin allowlist	CORS bypass
JWT with no expiration	`expiresIn: '15m'` + refresh tokens	Token hijacking
Generic error messages to logs	Structured JSON with correlation IDs	Debugging blind spots
SMS OTP as primary factor	Passkeys/WebAuthn or TOTP (keep SMS for recovery-only)	Credential phishing

Optional: AI/Automation Extensions

Note: Security considerations for AI systems. Skip if not building AI features.

LLM Security Patterns

Threat	Mitigation
Prompt injection	Input validation, output filtering, sandboxed execution
Data exfiltration	Output scanning, PII detection
Model theft	API rate limiting, watermarking
Jailbreaking	Constitutional AI, guardrails

AI-Assisted Security Tools

Tool	Use Case
Semgrep	Static analysis with AI rules
Snyk Code	AI-powered vulnerability detection
GitHub CodeQL	Semantic code analysis

.NET/EF Core Crypto Integration Security

For C#/.NET crypto/fintech services using Entity Framework Core, see:

references/dotnet-efcore-crypto-security.md â Security rules and C# patterns

Key rules summary:

No secrets in code â use configuration/environment variables
No sensitive data in logs (tokens, keys, PII)
Use decimal for financial values, never double/float
EF Core or parameterized queries only â no dynamic SQL
Generic error messages to users, detailed logging server-side

Trend Awareness Protocol

IMPORTANT: When users ask recommendation questions about application security, you MUST use WebSearch to check current trends before answering. If WebSearch is unavailable, use data/sources.json + web browsing and state what you verified vs assumed.

Trigger Conditions

“What’s the best approach for [authentication/authorization]?”
“What should I use for [secrets/encryption/API security]?”
“What’s the latest in application security?”
“Current best practices for [OWASP/zero trust/supply chain]?”
“Is [security approach] still recommended in 2026?”
“What are the latest security vulnerabilities?”
“Best auth solution for [use case]?”

Required Searches

Search: "application security best practices 2026"
Search: "OWASP Top 10 2025 2026"
Search: "[authentication/authorization] trends 2026"
Search: "supply chain security 2026"

What to Report

After searching, provide:

Current landscape: What security approaches are standard NOW
Emerging threats: New vulnerabilities or attack vectors
Deprecated/declining: Approaches that are no longer secure
Recommendation: Based on fresh data and current advisories

Example Topics (verify with fresh search)
