November 2024: Delivered a crucial bug fix for the .NET Dependency Check in Audacia.Build. Corrected the YAML-based dependency check template to use 'projectName' instead of 'displayName', ensuring NuGet dependency checks are properly configured.

This work aligns with ongoing efforts to harden the build pipeline and improve security posture.
