Oct 1, 2025October 2025: Delivered CentOS Stream security profiles testing support for ComplianceAsCode/content, enabling automated validation of bsi and ism_o_top_secret security profiles across CentOS Stream versions. Implemented new job configurations in .packit.yaml and added corresponding test definitions in tests/tmt/plans/contest.fmf to exercise the profiles in CI. The work is captured in commit c5fcc87367e7768c54dec95fea30ab1ca0913330 with message 'Enable testing of bsi and ism_o_top_secret profiles on CentOS Stream'. Impact: expands CI coverage, reduces risk of regression in security policy enforcement, and provides earlier visibility into compatibility issues for CentOS Stream releases. Technologies demonstrated: Packit configuration, YAML, tmt/test plans, Fabric Markup Format (FMF) tests, CentOS Stream security profile validation, CI automation.
