SAF Attest

Attest

Attest to ‘Not Reviewed’ controls: sometimes requirements can’t be tested automatically by security tools and hence require manual review, whereby someone interviews people and/or examines a system to confirm (i.e., attest as to) whether the control requirements have been satisfied.

Create Attestations

attest create              Create attestation files for use with `saf attest apply`

USAGE
  $ saf attest create -o <attestation-file> [-i <hdf-json> -t <json | xlsx | yml | yaml>]

FLAGS
  -h, --help             Show CLI help.
  -i, --input=<value>    (optional) An input HDF file to search for controls
  -o, --output=<value>   (required) The output filename
  -t, --format=<option>  [default: json] (optional) The output file type
                         <options: json|xlsx|yml|yaml>

EXAMPLES
  $ saf attest create -o attestation.json -i hdf.json

  $ saf attest create -o attestation.xlsx -t xlsx

Apply Attestations

attest apply              Apply one or more attestation files to one or more HDF results sets

USAGE
  $ saf attest apply -i <input-hdf-json>... <attestation>... -o <output-hdf-path>

  -i, --input=<value>...  (required) Your input HDF and Attestation file(s)
  -o, --output=<value>    (required) Output file or folder (for multiple executions)
