Build it
The code artifact below is ProductionSecuritySystem, a single self-contained orchestrator. It reimplements a compact version of every control from Lessons 1-5 inline (so this file runs standalone with no import dependency on the other lesson directories), wires them together against the support-copilot target application, and produces the full set of capstone deliverables — architecture report, guardrail test results, monitoring dashboard, CI/CD gate report (with a proven pass/fail pair), SBOM and weight verification, incident response playbook, and NIST AI RMF compliance mapping — plus a CAPSTONE_SUMMARY.md that checks its own output against every rubric line.

lesson_08_06_production_security_system.py
PROJECT 4 -- COURSE CAPSTONE: Production AI Security System.
A single, self-contained ProductionSecuritySystem orchestrator that wires
together every control this course built into one end-to-end run against a
sample target application config:
1. SecurityArchitecture -- validates the 7-layer architecture (Lesson 1)
2. GuardrailPipeline -- blocks real attack payloads at input/output
(Phase 2/5 pattern, reimplemented inline)
3. SecurityMonitor -- computes 3 real security signals over
synthetic production telemetry (Lesson 2)
4. CI/CD security gates -- adversarial + regression gates that fail the
build on a known-bad change (Lesson 3)
5. SupplyChainScanner -- pip-audit wrapper + weight hashing + SBOM
(Lesson 4)
6. IncidentPlaybookGenerator -- structured IR playbooks + regulatory
obligations (Lesson 5)
7. ComplianceMapper -- maps every control actually implemented to
NIST AI RMF functions (Govern/Map/Measure/Manage)
Every class here is a self-contained reimplementation (not an import) of the
corresponding lesson's artifact, so this single file is runnable standalone
with no dependency on the other lesson directories. The orchestrator runs
all seven pieces against one target app config and produces the capstone's
actual deliverable artifacts:
- architecture_report.md (all 7 layers, concrete controls)
- guardrail_test_results.md (>=2 attack categories demonstrably blocked)
- monitoring_dashboard.md (>=3 real, correctly computed security signals)
- cicd_gate_report.md (gate that fails the build on a bad change)
- sbom.json + weight_verification_report.md
- incident_response_playbook.md (>=2 incident types + regulatory reporting)
- compliance_mapping.md (NIST AI RMF mapping)
- CAPSTONE_SUMMARY.md (the rollup a reviewer reads first)
Run:
python lesson_08_06_production_security_system.py
python lesson_08_06_production_security_system.py --output-dir ./capstone_artifacts
No external services, no API keys required. If the real `pip-audit` binary
is installed, the supply chain scan will shell out to it; otherwise it
explains the fallback and continues with a synthetic finding, exactly as in
Lesson 4. Everything else runs entirely offline against synthetic/mock data.
