+## Critical Findings (3)
+
+### [CRITICAL] NSG-001: SQL Server Completely Open to Public Internet
+
+**File:** `infra/core/database/sqlserver/sqlserver.bicep`  
+**Lines:** 33-42  
+**Resource:** `sqlServer::firewall`
+
+**Issue:**  
+SQL Server firewall is configured to allow connections from **ALL** IP addresses worldwide (0.0.0.1 to 255.255.255.254), exposing sensitive databases to potential unauthorized access and data breaches.
+
+```bicep
+resource firewall 'firewallRules' = {
+  name: 'Azure Services'
+  properties: {
+    // Allow all clients
+    // Note: range [0.0.0.0-0.0.0.0] means "allow all Azure-hosted clients only".
+    // This is not sufficient, because we also want to allow direct access from developer machine, for debugging purposes.
+    startIpAddress: '0.0.0.1'
+    endIpAddress: '255.255.255.254'
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Impact:**
+- Direct exposure of catalog and identity databases to the entire internet
+- Credentials can be brute-forced from anywhere globally
+- SQL injection attacks from any source IP
+- Compliance violations (PCI-DSS, HIPAA, SOC 2)
+
+**Control Mapping:**
+- CIS Azure 6.3: "Ensure 'Enforce SSL connection' is set to 'ENABLED' for PostgreSQL Database Server"
+- NIST SC-7: Boundary Protection
+- Azure Security Benchmark NS-1: Implement network segmentation
+- PCI-DSS Requirement 1.2.1, 1.3.1
+
+---
+
+### [CRITICAL] CONTAINER-001: Kubernetes Pod Running with Privileged Mode
+
+**File:** `manifests/critical-double.yaml`  
+**Lines:** 1-12  
+**Resource:** `kubesec-test` Pod
+
+**Issue:**  
+Pod is configured with `privileged: true` and `allowPrivilegeEscalation: true`, granting unrestricted access to host resources and kernel capabilities.
+
+```yaml
+apiVersion: v1
+kind: Pod
+metadata:
+  name: kubesec-test
+spec:
+  containers:
+  - name: kubesec-demo
+    image: gcr.io/google-samples/node-hello:1.0
+    securityContext:
+      allowPrivilegeEscalation: true
+      privileged: true
+```
+
+**Impact:**
+- Container can escape isolation and access host system
+- Full access to all host devices and kernel namespaces
+- Can modify host networking, mount host filesystem
+- Complete cluster compromise possible
+- Violates pod security standards
+
+**Control Mapping:**
+- CIS Kubernetes 5.2.1: "Minimize the admission of privileged containers"
+- NSA/CISA Kubernetes Hardening Guide: Section 3.1
+- NIST AC-6: Least Privilege
+- PCI-DSS 2.2.5: Remove unnecessary functionality
+
+---
+
+### [CRITICAL] SECRET-001: Hardcoded Database Password in Docker Compose
+
+**File:** `docker-compose.yml`  
+**Lines:** 18-24  
+**Resource:** `sqlserver` service
+
+**Issue:**  
+SQL Server SA password is hardcoded in plaintext in the Docker Compose file, committed to version control and visible to anyone with repository access.
+
+```yaml
+sqlserver:
+  image: mcr.microsoft.com/azure-sql-edge
+  ports:
+    - "1433:1433"
+  environment:
+    - SA_PASSWORD=@someThingComplicated1234
+    - ACCEPT_EULA=Y
+```
+
+**Impact:**
+- Password exposed in version control history
+- Anyone with repo access (including read-only) can obtain credentials
+- Compromises all local development databases
+- Password rotation requires code changes
+- Security audit trail shows credential in cleartext
+
+**Control Mapping:**
+- CIS Docker 5.10: "Do not store sensitive information in Docker images"
+- OWASP A02: Cryptographic Failures
+- NIST IA-5: Authenticator Management
+- PCI-DSS 8.2.1: Do not use vendor-supplied defaults
+

+
+## High Severity Findings (6)
+
+### [HIGH] NSG-002: SQL Server Public Network Access Enabled
+
+**File:** `infra/core/database/sqlserver/sqlserver.bicep`  
+**Line:** 23  
+**Resource:** `sqlServer` properties
+
+**Issue:**  
+SQL Server is configured with `publicNetworkAccess: 'Enabled'`, allowing connections from the public internet rather than restricting to private endpoints only.
+
+```bicep
+properties: {
+  version: '12.0'
+  minimalTlsVersion: '1.2'
+  publicNetworkAccess: 'Enabled'
+  administratorLogin: sqlAdmin
+  administratorLoginPassword: sqlAdminPassword
+}
+```
+
+**Impact:**
+- Database accessible from public internet
+- Increased attack surface for brute force attacks
+- No network-level isolation
+- Does not follow Azure best practices for PaaS security
+
+**Control Mapping:**
+- CIS Azure 4.1.3: "Ensure that 'public network access' on Azure SQL Database is disabled"
+- Azure Security Benchmark NS-2: Secure cloud services with network controls
+- NIST SC-7(3): Managed Interfaces
+
+---
+
+### [HIGH] ENC-001: Key Vault Missing Soft Delete Protection
+
+**File:** `infra/core/security/keyvault.bicep`  
+**Lines:** 7-22  
+**Resource:** `keyVault`
+
+**Issue:**  
+Key Vault is deployed without `enableSoftDelete` or `enablePurgeProtection`, allowing secrets to be permanently deleted without recovery option.
+
+```bicep
+resource keyVault 'Microsoft.KeyVault/vaults@2022-07-01' = {
+  name: name
+  location: location
+  tags: tags
+  properties: {
+    tenantId: subscription().tenantId
+    sku: { family: 'A', name: 'standard' }
+    accessPolicies: !empty(principalId) ? [
+      {
+        objectId: principalId
+        permissions: { secrets: [ 'get', 'list' ] }
+        tenantId: subscription().tenantId
+      }
+    ] : []
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Impact:**
+- Secrets can be permanently deleted without recovery
+- No protection against malicious or accidental deletion
+- Compliance violations for data retention requirements
+- Cannot recover from ransomware attacks
+
+**Control Mapping:**
+- CIS Azure 8.4: "Ensure that key vault enables purge protection"
+- CIS Azure 8.5: "Ensure that key vault enables soft delete"
+- Azure Security Benchmark DP-6: Use secure key management
+- NIST CP-9: Information System Backup
+
+---
+
+### [HIGH] ENC-002: Key Vault Missing Network Restrictions
+
+**File:** `infra/core/security/keyvault.bicep`  
+**Lines:** 7-22  
+**Resource:** `keyVault`
+
+**Issue:**  
+Key Vault has no network ACLs configured, making it accessible from the public internet rather than restricted to specific virtual networks or private endpoints.
+
+```bicep
+properties: {
+  tenantId: subscription().tenantId
+  sku: { family: 'A', name: 'standard' }
+  accessPolicies: !empty(principalId) ? [
+    {
+      objectId: principalId
+      permissions: { secrets: [ 'get', 'list' ] }
+      tenantId: subscription().tenantId
+    }
+  ] : []
+  // Missing: networkAcls
+}
+```
+
+**Impact:**
+- Secrets accessible from anywhere on the internet
+- No network-level defense in depth
+- Increased exposure to credential theft
+- Does not follow Zero Trust principles
+
+**Control Mapping:**
+- CIS Azure 8.7: "Ensure that key vault sets a network access control list"
+- Azure Security Benchmark NS-2: Secure cloud services with network controls
+- NIST SC-7: Boundary Protection
+
+---
+
+### [HIGH] CONTAINER-002: Docker Containers Running as Root User
+
+**File:** `src/Web/Dockerfile`  
+**Lines:** 20-27  
+**File:** `src/PublicApi/Dockerfile`  
+**Lines:** 3-25
+
+**Issue:**  
+Both Dockerfiles run the application as the root user (UID 0) by default, violating the principle of least privilege.
+
+```dockerfile
+FROM mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/aspnet:8.0 AS runtime
+WORKDIR /app
+COPY --from=build /app/src/Web/out ./
+# No USER directive - runs as root
+ENTRYPOINT ["dotnet", "Web.dll"]
+```
+
+**Impact:**
+- Container compromise leads to root-level access
+- Easier privilege escalation if vulnerability exploited
+- Can modify container filesystem without restrictions
+- Violates container security best practices
+
+**Control Mapping:**
+- CIS Docker 4.1: "Ensure that a user for the container has been created"
+- NSA/CISA Kubernetes Hardening Guide
+- NIST AC-6: Least Privilege
+
+---
+
+### [HIGH] CONTAINER-003: Unpinned Docker Image Tags
+
+**File:** `manifests/critical-double.yaml`  
+**Line:** 8
+
+**Issue:**  
+Container image uses a mutable tag (`1.0`) instead of an immutable digest, allowing image to change without manifest updates.
+
+```yaml
+containers:
+- name: kubesec-demo
+  image: gcr.io/google-samples/node-hello:1.0
+```
+
+**Impact:**
+- Image content can change without manifest updates
+- Supply chain attacks through tag replacement
+- No guarantee of consistent deployments
+- Cannot verify exact image version running
+
+**Control Mapping:**
+- NSA/CISA Kubernetes Hardening Guide: Use immutable image tags
+- NIST CM-2: Baseline Configuration
+- CIS Kubernetes 5.2.6: Image provenance
+
+---
+
+### [HIGH] LOG-001: SQL Server Missing Auditing Configuration
+
+**File:** `infra/core/database/sqlserver/sqlserver.bicep`  
+**Lines:** 16-43  
+**Resource:** `sqlServer`
+
+**Issue:**  
+SQL Server is deployed without auditing enabled, preventing security monitoring and compliance logging.
+
+```bicep
+resource sqlServer 'Microsoft.Sql/servers@2022-05-01-preview' = {
+  name: name
+  location: location
+  tags: tags
+  properties: {
+    version: '12.0'
+    minimalTlsVersion: '1.2'
+    publicNetworkAccess: 'Enabled'
+    administratorLogin: sqlAdmin
+    administratorLoginPassword: sqlAdminPassword
+  }
+  // Missing: auditingSettings resource
+}
+```
+
+**Impact:**
+- Cannot detect unauthorized access attempts
+- No compliance audit trail
+- Missing forensic data for security incidents
+- Violates regulatory requirements (PCI-DSS, HIPAA, SOC 2)
+
+**Control Mapping:**
+- CIS Azure 4.1.5: "Ensure that 'Auditing' is set to 'On'"
+- Azure Security Benchmark LT-4: Enable logging for Azure resources
+- NIST AU-2: Event Logging
+- PCI-DSS 10.2.1-10.2.7: Audit trail requirements
+
+---
+
+## Medium Severity Findings (5)
+
+### [MEDIUM] IAM-001: Key Vault Using Legacy Access Policies Instead of RBAC
+
+**File:** `infra/core/security/keyvault.bicep`  
+**Lines:** 14-20
+
+**Issue:**  
+Key Vault uses legacy access policies model instead of Azure RBAC, which is the recommended approach for centralized access management.
+
+```bicep
+accessPolicies: !empty(principalId) ? [
+  {
+    objectId: principalId
+    permissions: { secrets: [ 'get', 'list' ] }
+    tenantId: subscription().tenantId
+  }
+] : []
+```
+
+**Impact:**
+- Decentralized permission management
+- Cannot leverage Azure AD conditional access
+- Difficult to audit and maintain at scale
+- Not aligned with Zero Trust architecture
+
+**Control Mapping:**
+- Azure Security Benchmark PA-7: Use Azure RBAC for authorization
+- CIS Azure 8.1: Use RBAC for Key Vault access control
+
+---
+
+### [MEDIUM] LOG-002: Key Vault Missing Diagnostic Settings
+
+**File:** `infra/core/security/keyvault.bicep`  
+**Lines:** 7-22  
+**Resource:** `keyVault`
+
+**Issue:**  
+Key Vault does not have diagnostic settings configured to collect audit logs for monitoring and compliance.
+
+```bicep
+resource keyVault 'Microsoft.KeyVault/vaults@2022-07-01' = {
+  name: name
+  location: location
+  tags: tags
+  properties: { ... }
+  // Missing: diagnostic settings
+}
+```
+
+**Impact:**
+- Cannot monitor secret access patterns
+- Missing audit trail for compliance
+- No alerting on suspicious activities
+- Delayed incident detection
+
+**Control Mapping:**
+- CIS Azure 5.1.5: "Ensure that logging for Azure KeyVault is 'Enabled'"
+- Azure Security Benchmark LT-4: Enable logging
+- NIST AU-12: Audit Generation
+
+---
+
+### [MEDIUM] ENC-003: SQL Server Using Password Authentication Instead of Azure AD
+
+**File:** `infra/core/database/sqlserver/sqlserver.bicep`  
+**Lines:** 16-26
+
+**Issue:**  
+SQL Server is configured with SQL authentication (username/password) rather than Azure AD authentication with managed identities.
+
+```bicep
+properties: {
+  version: '12.0'
+  minimalTlsVersion: '1.2'
+  publicNetworkAccess: 'Enabled'
+  administratorLogin: sqlAdmin
+  administratorLoginPassword: sqlAdminPassword
+  // Missing: azureADAdministrator configuration
+}
+```
+
+**Impact:**
+- Password-based authentication less secure than Azure AD
+- Cannot leverage conditional access policies
+- Password rotation complexity
+- Not using managed identities for passwordless auth
+
+**Control Mapping:**
+- CIS Azure 4.1.2: "Ensure that Azure Active Directory Admin is configured"
+- Azure Security Benchmark PA-8: Use passwordless authentication
+- NIST IA-2(1): Network Access to Privileged Accounts
+
+---
+
+### [MEDIUM] CONTAINER-004: Containers Missing Resource Limits
+
+**File:** `manifests/score-5-pod-serviceaccount.yaml`  
+**Lines:** 8-10
+
+**Issue:**  
+Container does not define CPU and memory resource limits, allowing potential resource exhaustion.
+
+```yaml
+containers:
+  - name: nginx
+    image: nginx
+    # Missing: resources.limits and resources.requests
+    securityContext:
+      runAsNonRoot: true
+      readOnlyRootFilesystem: true
+```
+
+**Impact:**
+- Container can consume unlimited node resources
+- Potential denial of service to other workloads
+- No resource-based cost control
+- Difficult to properly scale and schedule
+
+**Control Mapping:**
+- CIS Kubernetes 5.2.4: "Minimize the admission of containers with resource limits"
+- NSA/CISA Kubernetes Hardening Guide: Resource controls
+- NIST SC-6: Resource Availability
+
+---
+
+### [MEDIUM] CONTAINER-005: Docker Compose Exposing Database Port Publicly
+
+**File:** `docker-compose.yml`  
+**Lines:** 20-21
+
+**Issue:**  
+SQL Server port 1433 is exposed on the host, making the database accessible outside the Docker network.
+
+```yaml
+sqlserver:
+  image: mcr.microsoft.com/azure-sql-edge
+  ports:
+    - "1433:1433"  # Publicly exposed
+```
+
+**Impact:**
+- Database accessible from host network
+- Increases attack surface for development environments
+- Could be accidentally deployed to production
+- Not following network isolation best practices
+
+**Control Mapping:**
+- CIS Docker 5.7: "Do not map privileged ports within containers"
+- NIST SC-7: Boundary Protection
+
+---
+
+## Low Severity Findings (3)
+
+### [LOW] IAM-002: Overly Permissive Key Vault Secret Permissions
+
+**File:** `infra/core/security/keyvault-access.bicep`  
+**Lines:** 4, 12-14
+
+**Issue:**  
+Default permission set includes 'list' capability which may not be necessary for all applications.
+
+```bicep
+param permissions object = { secrets: [ 'get', 'list' ] }
+```
+
+**Impact:**
+- Applications can enumerate all secrets in vault
+- Broader access than necessary (defense in depth)
+- Potential information disclosure
+
+**Control Mapping:**
+- NIST AC-6: Least Privilege
+- CIS Azure: Principle of least privilege
+
+---
+
+### [LOW] LOG-003: App Service HTTP Logs Retention Too Short
+
+**File:** `infra/core/host/appservice.bicep`  
+**Line:** 83
+
+**Issue:**  
+HTTP logs are configured with only 1 day retention, which is insufficient for security analysis and compliance.
+
+```bicep
+httpLogs: { 
+  fileSystem: { 
+    enabled: true, 
+    retentionInDays: 1,  // Too short
+    retentionInMb: 35 
+  } 
+}
+```
+
+**Impact:**
+- Limited forensic analysis window
+- May not meet compliance requirements
+- Cannot investigate incidents older than 1 day
+
+**Control Mapping:**
+- Azure Security Benchmark LT-5: Centralize security log management

+---
+
+### [LOW] CONTAINER-006: Kubernetes Pod Missing Security Labels
+
+**File:** `manifests/score-5-pod-serviceaccount.yaml`  
+**Lines:** 1-16
+
+**Issue:**  
+Pod is missing security-related labels for policy enforcement and monitoring (e.g., pod-security.kubernetes.io labels).
+
+```yaml
+apiVersion: v1
+kind: Pod
+metadata:
+  name: my-pod
+  # Missing: security labels
+```
+
+**Impact:**
+- Difficult to apply pod security policies
+- Cannot easily filter/monitor by security posture
+- Missing security context metadata

+
+### Regulations Affected by Current Findings
+
+| Regulation | Affected Controls | Risk Level |
+|------------|------------------|------------|
+| **PCI-DSS** | 1.2.1, 1.3.1, 3.4, 7.1, 8.2.1, 10.2.x | **High** - Database exposure and hardcoded credentials |
+| **HIPAA** | 164.312(a)(1), 164.312(e)(1) | **High** - PHI could be exposed via public SQL access |
+| **SOC 2** | CC6.1, CC6.6, CC6.7, CC7.2 | **High** - Insufficient access controls and monitoring |
+| **GDPR** | Article 32 (Security of Processing) | **Medium** - Data protection measures inadequate |
+| **ISO 27001** | A.9.4.1, A.12.4.1, A.13.1.1, A.18.1.3 | **Medium** - Access control and logging gaps |
+| **FedRAMP** | AC-6, SC-7, AU-2, IA-5 | **High** - Multiple control failures |
+
+---
+
+## Risk Assessment
+
+### Overall Risk Score: **8.5/10 (High)**
+
+**Justification:**
+- **3 CRITICAL findings** including public database exposure and privileged containers
+- **6 HIGH findings** affecting encryption, authentication, and logging
+- Multiple compliance violations across PCI-DSS, HIPAA, and SOC 2
+- Production-ready infrastructure with severe misconfigurations
+
+### Immediate Action Required:
+1. **NSG-001** - Restrict SQL Server firewall immediately
+2. **SECRET-001** - Remove hardcoded password from version control
+3. **CONTAINER-001** - Remove privileged container specification
+4. **NSG-002** - Disable SQL public network access
+5. **ENC-001 & ENC-002** - Enable Key Vault protections
+
+---
+
+## Next Steps
+
+1. **Prioritize Critical Findings** - Address all CRITICAL severity issues immediately
+2. **Implement MSDO Analyzers** - Add recommended security scanning to CI/CD pipelines
+3. **Fix High Severity Issues** - Remediate HIGH findings within current sprint
+4. **Create Remediation Plan** - Schedule MEDIUM and LOW findings for upcoming sprints
+5. **Continuous Monitoring** - Set up Azure Security Center/Defender for Cloud
+6. **Security Training** - Educate team on secure IaC practices
+7. **Policy Enforcement** - Implement Azure Policy to prevent future misconfigurations
