Description

**Ticket Title**: Implement Security-Oriented Workflows for #embra-connect ETL Tool

**Description**:
In order to strengthen the security posture of the #embra-connect ETL tool, security-oriented workflows need to be established and integrated into the development lifecycle. These workflows should focus on security testing, monitoring, and incident response, ensuring that security is embedded in every phase of the development process.

Key tasks for this ticket include:

1. **Secure Code Review Workflow**:
Implement automated security checks in the CI/CD pipeline using tools such as **SonarQube**, **CodeQL**, or **Checkmarx** to perform static code analysis for vulnerabilities during each commit and pull request.

2. **Automated Dependency Scanning**:
Integrate a workflow for automated dependency scanning using tools like **Dependabot**, **Snyk**, or **OWASP Dependency-Check**. Ensure that dependencies are regularly checked for known vulnerabilities and are updated or patched when necessary.

3. **Vulnerability Testing Workflow**:
Set up regular vulnerability scans on the application and infrastructure, utilizing tools like **Nessus**, **Qualys**, or **OWASP ZAP**. This should include network scans, application scans, and checks for misconfigurations in cloud environments.

4. **Security Testing in CI/CD**:
Add security test stages to the CI/CD pipeline, including automated penetration testing and vulnerability assessments. Ensure that the pipeline runs security tests for each build and deployment.

5. **Authentication and Authorization Testing**:
Create automated tests for security mechanisms such as OAuth, JWT tokens, and role-based access control (RBAC). Ensure that unauthorized access is prevented and that user roles are correctly enforced.

6. **Incident Response Workflow**:
Implement a streamlined workflow for security incidents that includes immediate actions, logging of relevant data, and escalation procedures. This should include integration with alerting systems such as **PagerDuty** or **Slack** for real-time notifications.

7. **Monitoring and Logging Workflow**:
Set up continuous monitoring for unusual activities, with alerting based on suspicious actions or anomalies in user behavior. Integrate with **ELK stack**, **Prometheus**, or similar monitoring tools. Ensure that logs are collected securely and stored in a manner compliant with data protection standards.

**Acceptance Criteria**:

- Security workflows are integrated into the development pipeline.
- Vulnerability scanning tools are properly configured and produce actionable reports.
- Automated security tests are triggered on each code change.
- A documented incident response process is in place.
- Monitoring and alerting systems are functioning correctly.
