PROFILE

Lily.rappaport

Lily Rappaport contributed to the 18F/identity-dashboard repository by engineering deployment and security improvements over a two-month period. She separated database deployment into its own Argo CD application, updating CI/CD pipelines to enable independent lifecycle management and safer rollbacks. Using Kubernetes, YAML, and Ruby, Lily enhanced secret detection in CI by refining Gitleaks rules and excluding noisy configuration files, which improved vulnerability reporting and reduced false positives. She also fixed review environment configuration by aligning service provider URLs with review app domains, resulting in more reliable QA cycles. Her work demonstrated depth in configuration management, DevOps, and security automation.

December 2024 monthly summary for 18F/identity-dashboard focused on stabilizing review environments. Delivered a critical fix to Identity Dashboard Review Environment Configuration by correcting the service provider configuration in the database setup step for review applications. The update realigns return URLs, redirect URIs, and push notification URLs with the review app domain structure, ensuring identity-dashboard endpoints resolve correctly in QA/staging. Implemented in commit 4f53d345a5109d23eeed7df0e291b9da024a85da ("fix reviewapp service providers in dbsetup step"). Result: smoother review flows, fewer environment-related defects, and faster validation cycles.

November 2024: Delivered two key enhancements for 18F/identity-dashboard focused on deployment reliability and security posture. 1) Deployment architecture: separated database deployment into its own Argo CD application with CI updates to tear down both main and database apps, plus a dedicated Argo CD manifest to manage the database independently, enabling safer rollbacks and independent lifecycle management. 2) Security and compliance: enhanced CI secrets detection with refined rules, exclusion of noisy config files, improved vulnerability reporting, and adoption of a stronger default Gitleaks rule set by disabling problematic RSA checks. These changes reduce blast radius, accelerate safe releases, and improve credential protection. Technologies demonstrated include Argo CD, GitOps, Kubernetes, CI/CD automation, and secret-scanning tooling. Business value: faster, safer deployments with lower risk of credential exposure and clearer governance over sensitive configurations.
