Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Community Sound Monitoring
Provide and maintain 6 sound monitors at locations 1, 2, 3, 6, 8, and 9 described above and continuously monitor
nighttime sound levels throughout the entire construction period. Each community sound monitor must be set to store sound
level data and audio recordings continuously. The numerical threshold value of each sound monitor must be set on an hourly
basis and be equal to the baseline ambient hourly Lmax established for each location and each nighttime hour. The
monitoring system must be capable of providing information to determine if the cause of an elevated sound level is an
ambient event not related to construction. Additional monitoring equipment may include video surveillance cameras or
sound level meters.
Construction Sound Monitoring
Provide and maintain 4 sound monitors within the construction staging areas at approximate locations shown on the
plans and continuously monitor nighttime sound levels throughout the entire construction period. The final locations, to be
described in the SCP, must be adjusted to be within 30.5 meters of the major noise sources. The sound monitors must be
located more than 61 meters apart. Each construction monitor must be set to store sound level data and audio recordings
continuously. The numerical threshold value of each sound monitor must be no greater than a sound level of 86 dBA.

12. Contingency Procedures
If a community sound monitor records an exceedance event, the monitoring system must immediately send notifications
to the onsite Contractor and the Engineer personnel as specified in the SCP.
If the measured sound level at a community monitoring location exceeds the project noise criteria, the Contractor must
determine the cause of elevated sound level within 20 minutes of occurrence. If the cause is an ambient event, it must be
noted in a summary report to the Engineer.
Immediately suspend operations that do not comply with the project noise criteria. Submit a revised SCP detailing new,
revised, or additional measures to mitigate the sound generated by the operations. Do not resume the operations until the
Engineer has approved, in writing, the revised work practices and they are implemented on the project.
The Engineer has the authority to review and revise the determination made by the Contractor. Cooperate with the
Engineer by providing information regarding Contractor's operations during an exceedance event.
Sound Monitoring Reporting Requirements
The sound monitoring system must store the following measured acoustical data:
1. Hourly Leq, hourly Lmax
2. Start time and duration of each exceedance event
3. The maximum sound level measured during each exceedance event
4. Continuous audio recordings
4.1 If no exceedance event occurs, the audio recordings may be deleted after 48 hours.
4.2 Retain at least sixty (60) seconds of audio recording directly preceding and following the exceedance event
for submission to the Engineer.
Archive the acoustical data and audio recordings. Submit one electronic copy of the above information to the Engineer
by 1:00 P.M. each day following the measurements made the preceding night. Information submitted to the Engineer must
include numerical data in the form of a summary report and the audio recordings appropriately named or labeled to
correspond to the start time of the recording. If requested, data and audio recordings from the sound monitors must be made
available to the Engineer within two hours of the time of the recording.
If the measured sound levels at any of the community monitoring locations exceed the project noise criteria, the
summary report to the Engineer must identify the causal event(s) and the sound source(s). If the cause is the Contractor's
operations, the actions taken to reduce sound levels must also be listed.
Post numerical acoustical data recorded at the community sound monitors on a website provided by the Engineer by 1:00
P.M. each day following the measurements made the preceding night. Information posted on the website must include hourly
Leq and hourly Lmax data measured during nighttime hours and the project noise criteria. Should the measured sound levels
exceed the project criteria, the website must identify the causal event(s) and the sound source(s). If the cause is Contactor
operations, the actions taken to reduce sound levels must also be listed. The website must be searchable by date and provide
a graphical map to illustrate the construction site and the adjacent community with street names and locations of community
sound monitors.
