Fluttercon 2024: Showing that you care about security - OpenSSF Scorecards for Dart and Flutter projects
0 likes163 views
Have you noticed the OpenSSF Scorecard badges on the official Dart and Flutter repos? It's Google's way of showing that they care about security. Practices such as pinning dependencies, branch protection, required reviews, continuous integration tests etc. are measured to provide a score and accompanying badge. You can do the same for your projects, and this presentation will show you how, with an emphasis on the unique challenges that come up when working with Dart and Flutter. The session will provide a walkthrough of the steps involved in securing a first repository, and then what it takes to repeat that process across an organization with multiple repos. It will also look at the ongoing maintenance involved once scorecards have been implemented, and how aspects of that maintenance can be better automated to minimize toil.

- 47. The software supply chain trifecta
- 48. © 2024 - Atsign | docs.atsign.com Review ➔ Our journey started with adoption by the Dart/Flutter team. ➔ An OpenSSF Scorecard can show you care about security. ➔ Allstar provides a good starting point. ➔ Pick a first repo to get a hang of what’s needed. ➔ Then automate across the rest of the organisation. ➔ 20% of the effort to get 80% of the score. Uphill from there. ➔ Scorecards do create ongoing toil that needs to be minimised.
