Forces

Forces is the product responsible for the client-side part of the DevSecOps agent. On the other hand, Integrates is responsible for the back-end and the web interface.

Public Oath​

  1. A container image with the tag new is available in Docker Hub under the fluidattacks/forces identifier.
  2. A customer can follow the Agent Installation Steps to run Forces successfully.
  3. The container image, the CLI, and the Agent installation steps are backwards compatible.
  4. In the event that backward incompatible changes are needed, a proper notification and sufficient time is given to the End Users to adopt the new changes.

Architecture​

  1. Forces is a CLI application written in Python.

    It reports/logs debugging information to Bugsnag, where developers can consume it to improve exception handling and improve the program's logic to protect against crashes, and communicates with the ARM (Integrates) through the API in order to fetch the End User information, and to upload execution logs that the End User can inspect through the web interface.

  2. The CLI application is packaged into a container image that is deployed to Docker Hub using two tags:

    • new, for production use, deployed from the trunk branch.
    • <name>atfluid, for development use and testing purposes, deployed from the developer branch.

  3. Forces is also tested in a schedule using the Compute component of Common.
