Lyrics

[Verse 1]
OSCAP sweeps the baseline, automated truth unfolds
InSpec recipes validate what policy code beholds
Manual spot-checks find the gaps where scanners miss the mark
STIG compliance isn't luck, it's methodical and stark

[Chorus]
Five pillars guard the fortress, remember S-V-P-F-A
Scanning, Vulnerabilities, Penetration, FIPS, Access way
Test the walls before attackers, find the flaws before they do
Defense infrastructure standing when the testing phase is through

[Verse 2]
Container images harbor secrets, dependencies run deep
Host OS patches matter most, vulnerabilities don't sleep
Scan the layers, check the base, from kernel up to app
Every surface needs inspection, close each dangerous gap

[Chorus]
Five pillars guard the fortress, remember S-V-P-F-A
Scanning, Vulnerabilities, Penetration, FIPS, Access way
Test the walls before attackers, find the flaws before they do
Defense infrastructure standing when the testing phase is through

[Verse 3]
Penetration scope defined, rules of engagement clear
Client security teams briefed, coordination draws them near
Ethical hackers probe for weakness, simulating real attack
Document findings, patch the holes, strengthen what you lack

[Bridge]
FIPS validation crucial, algorithms must comply
Only approved cryptographic modules qualify
Access control verification, RBAC policies tight
Network policies and Kafka ACLs protect throughout the night

[Chorus]
Five pillars guard the fortress, remember S-V-P-F-A
Scanning, Vulnerabilities, Penetration, FIPS, Access way
Test the walls before attackers, find the flaws before they do
Defense infrastructure standing when the testing phase is through

[Outro]
Security testing never ends, vigilance remains the key
Automated scans and human eyes working in harmony
