- Develop deterministic test cases and security-context manifests to robustly assess application security posture.
- Create detailed hidden answer keys to enable accurate AI or scanner evaluation of vulnerable versus secure code.
- Evaluate and iterate on pipeline methodologies to ensure synthetic tasks and fixtures are challenging yet realistic for AppSec assessment.
- Document technical insights and methodologies, ensuring clarity in written feedback and communication.
- Collaborate through clear and thorough written and verbal communication to share findings and review peer contributions.
- Engage with agent-based security architecture and contribute to continuous improvement of the evaluation pipeline.
