PROFILE

Anton Staykov

Worked on the microsoft/zerotrustassessment repository to deliver a secure pull request validation workflow and improve CI log handling. Developed a certificate-based PR validation process using GitHub Actions, integrating Workload Identity Federation and app-only certificate authentication with Azure Key Vault for secure certificate storage. The workflow required manual dispatch and reviewer approval, enhancing security and auditability for code merges. Addressed a CI log sharing violation by relocating log files to a temporary directory and copying them post-execution, ensuring reliable CI completion and report delivery. Demonstrated expertise in PowerShell scripting, YAML workflow configuration, and security compliance within Azure DevOps environments.

May 2026 monthly summary for microsoft/zerotrustassessment: Delivered a secure PR validation workflow and CI log hardening to boost merge security, auditability, and reliability. Implemented a certificate-based PR validation workflow using GitHub Actions with manual dispatch and reviewer approval, leveraging Workload Identity Federation, app-only certificate authentication, Key Vault for certificate storage, and a private blob for the report. Fixed a CI log handling issue by relocating the tee log to a separate directory under RUNNER_TEMP and copying it into the report folder after execution, eliminating sharing violations and ensuring CI completes and reports are shipped. These changes reduce risk in code merges, improve traceability, and stabilize CI pipelines. Technologies demonstrated include GitHub Actions, certificate-based authentication, Workload Identity Federation (WIF), Key Vault, and PowerShell-based Invoke-ZtAssessment.
