The Agentic SDLC: a SOC 2-aligned secure development lifecycle policy for automated pipelines

When agents open 100,000 pull requests, reviewing every diff by hand stops working. A ready-to-adopt secure development lifecycle policy for AI-driven pipelines: normative requirements, roles, the lifecycle phases and their gates, a deterministic risk classifier, and AI-native review. Mapped to SOC 2, NIST SSDF (including the GenAI companion), ISO/IEC 27001 and 42001, and the OWASP Agentic Top 10.

What’s inside

  • A ready-to-adopt SDLC policy: normative requirements, roles and RACI, and the lifecycle phases with their gates
  • A merge gate and a release gate that apply the same controls to human and agent pull requests
  • A deterministic pull-request risk classifier: bright-line categories (auth, crypto, regulated data, IaC) force human review, a weighted score handles the rest
  • AI-native review that ships more secure code: an independent reviewer agent, an adversarial red-team agent, and alternating models
  • Every control mapped to SOC 2, NIST SSDF (incl. 218A), ISO 27001 and 42001, and OWASP Agentic, with a self-evidencing audit trail
  • A downloadable agent kit: 14 reference agents (analysis, review, security tests, Playwright e2e, dependency audit, done) as markdown that compiles to the Alyria Statio SDK in TypeScript or Python
