Apr 1, 2026April 2026 performance summary for ministryofjustice/laa-landing-page. Delivered security-focused enhancements and CI improvements to the landing-page repository, improving vulnerability visibility, feedback speed, and governance alignment. Key features delivered include Grype Scan Integration with stdout reporting, Ash scans with CI orchestration and branch-based triggering, SARIF output for Checkov, and CodeQL Action upgrade. These changes enhance automated vulnerability detection, streamline security reporting, and reduce manual toil. Major bugs fixed include renaming Grype Scan to Disable and disabling push-run on the branch, moving ASH SARIF upload to a dedicated job to fix Security tab updates, removing outdated workflows and push-runs on current branches, correcting project naming in Ash config, removal of obsolete actions, and applying global suppression updates for specific K8S checks. Overall impact: more reliable security scanning, faster feedback loops, reduced CI fragility, and clearer security reporting for stakeholders. Technologies/skills demonstrated: Grype, Ash, Checkov SARIF, CodeQL v3, GitHub Actions, Docker image workflow configuration, and branch-based CI orchestration.
