What is the CII Badging program?
CII (core infrastructure initiativeCore Infrastructure Initiative) Badge may be achieved by the projects which follow the Best practices criteria for Free/Libre and Open Source Software (FLOSS).
...
Projects in ONAP should be CII certified to an appropriate level in order to confirm with expectation of carrier grade.
CII Badging Levels
There are 3 levels(Badging levels) of CII badging which are as follows:
...
- Passing
...
- Silver
...
- Gold
When a new project starts the badging process they will begin at 0% completeness and as they progress the % will increase.
...
How to add multiple editors to a project report
- You need the numeric ID for the new editor you're adding to your project report.
- If the new editor doesn't already have a login on the CII site, they need to create one by going to https

ONAP CII Compliance Levels
For ONAP, 4 levels(ONAP Compliance) of compliance have been defined:
For each ONAP compliance level, all the projects in ONAP repository(not individual projects but all the repositories in gerrit eg AAI is a single project which has 22 repositories, so all 22 individual repos should comply not just AAI project as whole) should comply to certain standards when it comes to CII badging.
ONAP Level 1: 70 % of the repositories in gerrit must have an 100% completion in the CII badging towards passing level
with the non-passing projects reaching 80% completion in the CII badging towards passing level
Non-passing projects MUST pass specific cryptography criteria outlined by the Security Subcommittee*
ONAP Level 2: 70 % of the repositories in gerrit must have an 100% completion in the CII badging for silver level
with non-silver projects completed passing level and 80% completion towards silver level
ONAP Level 3: 70% of the repositories in gerrit must have an 100% completion in the CII badging for gold level
with non-gold projects achieving silver level and achieving 80% completion towards gold level
ONAP Level 4: 100 % passing gold.
Some of the important high level example criteria associated to the various levels are listed as follows for quick reference:
...
Level
...
Example Details/Criteria
...
Passing
...
The project website MUST succinctly describe what the software does (what problem does it solve?).
The project MUST use at least one automated test suite that is publicly released as FLOSS (this test suite may be
maintained as a separate FLOSS project).
...
Silver
...
The project MUST document what the user can and cannot expect in terms of security from the software produced
by the project. The project MUST identify the security requirements that the software is intended to meet and an
assurance case that justifies why these requirements are met.
The assurance case MUST include: a description of the threat model, clear identification of trust boundaries, and evidence that common security weaknesses have been
countered
...
Gold
...
The project MUST have at least 50% of all proposed modifications reviewed before release by a person other than
the author, to determine if it is a worthwhile modification and free of known issues which would argue against its
inclusion.
Badge Specific Adherence requirements
Each of the Badging level is associated with compliance requirements which in turn may vary from being e.g. absolute to being as varied as recommendatory in nature.
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", and "MAY" in the Badging guideline documents are are to be interpreted as below. (The terms are similar to what is described in RFC2119/RFC8174).
...
- and clicking on Sign Up.
- If you don't know the new editor's CII login ID, have them log in and click on Account -> Profile. At the bottom is a link called “JSON”. Click that and a JSON structure will be shown. We need the “id” value, which is numeric. For example, mine is 1597.
- An existing owner or editor of a project then needs to bring up the project page that they want to add another editor to. At the top is a menu item “Edit”. Click that, and search for “(Advanced) What other users have additional rights to edit this badge entry?”. In the field right below that, type in “+” and the numeric ID retrieved above. Click on one of the green “Save” buttons below.
- That new person is immediately added as an editor on the project.
- As an editor, you can quickly get a list of the projects that you have rights to by clicking on “Account -> Profile”.
Do I Report For the Entire Project or Separately For Every Single Repo? Can I Group Repos Together?
This is your choice. You can do a single report for your entire project, or you can file a separate report for each repository, or even group multiple repositories together.
- If your repositories use different languages or different testing procedures, you probably would find it easier to do it per-repository.
- You may also group multiple repositories together, if that would help. For example, you might group all of the repositories together that use Java, or all of the repos together that use Erlang.
- The key to grouping repositories together is to list all of the repo URLs in the response to the question "What is the URL for the version control repository?" question.
It's your choice as to what makes it easiest for you to manage your project.
If you do file one report for the entire project, or group multiple repos together then you need to answer each Met/Not Met question based on the lowest-common denominator answer: if ANY of the repos don’t meet the requirement, you cannot select Met. You can use the text response for each question to keep track of your reasons for picking any particular answer.
CII Badging Levels
There are 3 CII Badging levels which are as follows:

Badge Specific Adherence requirements
Each of the Badging level is associated with compliance requirements which in turn may vary from being e.g. absolute to being as varied as recommendatory in nature.
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", and "MAY" in the Badging guideline documents are are to be interpreted as below. (The terms are similar to what is described in RFC2119/RFC8174).
- The term MUST is an absolute requirement, and MUST NOT is an absolute prohibition.
- The term SHOULD indicates a criterion that is normally required, but there may exist valid reasons in particular circumstances to ignore it. However, the full implications must be understood and carefully weighed before choosing a different course.
- The term SUGGESTED is used instead of SHOULD when the criterion must be considered, but valid reasons to not do so are even more common than for SHOULD.
- Often a criterion is stated as something that SHOULD be done, or is SUGGESTED, because it may be difficult to implement or the costs to do so may be high.
- The term MAY provides one way something can be done, e.g., to make it clear that the described implementation is acceptable.
- To obtain a badge, all MUST and MUST NOT criteria must be met, all SHOULD criteria must be met OR the rationale for not implementing the criterion must be documented, and all SUGGESTED criteria have to be considered (rated as met or unmet). In some cases a URL may be required as part of the criterion's justification.
R2 Beijing Requirements
For the Beijing release, the compliance requirement is ONAP Level 1 (at least 70% of the project are on passing level, and all non-passing projects at >80% towards passing).

(URL required) [vulnerability_report_private] | ONAP does not support private vulnerability reports at this time, so you can just select the N/A radio button. Use text similar to the sample answer. Examples include a private defect report submitted on the web using HTTPS (TLS) or an email encrypted using OpenPGP. If vulnerability reports are always public (so there are never private vulnerability reports), choose "not applicable" (N/A). | Private vulnerability reports are not supported. | *ONAP project common response* According to updated version of ONAP Vulnerability Management process vulnerabilities should be reported by creating OJSI tickets. Taken into account their default limited visibility and HTTPS only access to Jira, we consider them to be private reports. All details how to report the issue has been described in the process itself. Choose "Met". | The process on how to report a vulnerability can be found in By default all vulnerability reports are private unless modified by the reporter. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The project's initial response time for any vulnerability report received in the last 6 months MUST be less than or equal to 14 days. [vulnerability_report_response] | For most new projects there are no vulnerability reported, so N/A would be a valid selection if that is the case for your project.

Question | Description | Sample Answer | |
Basics: Project oversight | |||
The project SHOULD have a legal mechanism where all developers of non-trivial amounts of project software assert that they are legally authorized to make these contributions. The most common and easily-implemented approach for doing this is by using a Developer Certificate of Origin (DCO), where users add "signed-off-by" in their commits and the project links to the DCO website. However, this MAY be implemented as a Contributor License Agreement (CLA), or other legal mechanism. (URL required) [dco] |
*ONAP project common response* This question can be answered the same ONAP-wide. | ONAP requires both a Developer Certificate of Origin (DCO), and a Contributor License Agreement (CLA). |

Question | Description | Sample Answer | |
Basics: Accessibility and internationalization | |||
The project (both project sites and project results) SHOULD follow accessibility best practices so that persons with disabilities can still participate in the project and use the project results where it is reasonable to do so. [accessibility_best_practices] | Any UI based project should would need to consider Accessibility and internalization. Resourceshttp://brebru.com/css/accessibility.html https://achecker.ca/checker/index.php | The following projects do not have any user interface. They all expose API's and fulfill a contract https://gerrit.onap.org/r/gitweb?p=aai/router-core.git;a=blob;f=License.txt;h=c97ccb2ef72c2f18a5299fa8e8c380e01fcc109a;hb=refs/heads/master | |
The software produced by the project SHOULD be internationalized to enable easy localization for the target audience's culture, region, or language. If internationalization (i18n) does not apply (e.g., the software doesn't generate text intended for end-users and doesn't sort human-readable text), select "not applicable" (N/A).

If the project sites (website, repository, and download URLs) store passwords for authentication of external users, the passwords MUST be stored as iterated hashes with a per-user salt by using a key stretching (iterated) algorithm (e.g., PBKDF2, Bcrypt or Scrypt). If the project sites do not store passwords for this purpose, select "not applicable" (N/A). [sites_password_security] | *ONAP project common response* | Mark this as N/A. The project does not store passwords in the website, repository or downloads, but uses the Linux Foundation common login service. | |
Question | Description | Sample Answer | |
Change Control: Previous versions | |||
The project MUST maintain the most often used older versions of the product or provide an upgrade path to newer versions. If the upgrade path is difficult, the project MUST document how to perform the upgrade (e.g., the interfaces that have changed and detailed suggested steps to help upgrade). [maintenance_or_update] | *ONAP project common response* | All major releases are tagged in gerrit and the artifacts are stored with the release information on onap.nexus. So we can access all old versions of the artifact. If and when a upgrade requires certain steps to be followed they are being added to the release documents as needed | |

Question | Description | Sample Answer | |
Quality: Working build system | |||
---|---|---|---|
Build systems for native binaries MUST honor the relevant compiler and linker (environment) variables passed in to them (e.g., CC, CFLAGS, CXX, CXXFLAGS, and LDFLAGS) and pass them to compiler and linker invocations. A build system MAY extend them with additional flags; it MUST NOT simply replace provided values with its own. If no native binaries are being generated, select "not applicable" (N/A). [build_standard_variables] | The application does not create native binaries. (Some of the libraries it depends on do, but those are external.) | ||
The build and installation system SHOULD preserve debugging information if they are requested in the relevant flags (e.g., "install -s" is not used). If there is no build or installation system (e.g., typical JavaScript libraries), select "not applicable" (N/A).[build_preserve_debug] | The application does not create native binaries. (Some of the libraries it depends on do, but those are external.) | ||
The build system for the software produced by the project MUST NOT recursively build subdirectories if there are cross-dependencies in the subdirectories. If there is no build or installation system (e.g., typical JavaScript libraries), select "not applicable" (N/A). [build_non_recursive] | The application does not create native binaries. (Some of the libraries it depends on do, but those are external.) | ||
The project MUST be able to repeat the process of generating information from source files and get exactly the same bit-for-bit result. If no building occurs (e.g., scripting languages where the source code is used directly instead of being compiled), select "not applicable" (N/A). [build_repeatable] | All releases are tagged in gerrit(git), and the builds are controlled using jenkins. By providing the git tag information the same image can be build over and over again with same bit-for-bit result. | ||
Question | Description | Sample Answer | |
Quality: Installation system | |||
The project MUST provide a way to easily install and uninstall the software produced by the project using a commonly-used convention. [installation_common] | All packages are delivered either as an jar artifact or a docker image. | ||
The installation system for end-users MUST honor standard conventions for selecting the location where built artifacts are written to at installation time. For example, if it installs files on a POSIX system it MUST honor the DESTDIR environment variable. If there is no installation system or no standard convention, select "not applicable" (N/A). [installation_standard_variables] | The compiled docker images and jar files can be installed/used as the user sees fit. Both run on JVM or docker. So there is no reason to selecting locations etc. | ||
The project MUST provide a way for potential developers to quickly install all the project results and support environment necessary to make changes, including the tests and test environment. This MUST be performed with a commonly-used convention. [installation_development_quick] | *ONAP project common response* | All the components require only java and maven to begin with for a developer to quickly install and test it. | |
Question | Description | Sample Answer | |
Quality: Externally-maintained components | |||
The project MUST list external dependencies in a computer-processable way. (URL required) [external_dependencies] | External dependencies are controlled using the pom file, which can be found in the root folder for the projects https://gerrit.onap.org/r/gitweb?p=aai/sparky-be.git;a=tree;h=refs/heads/master;hb=refs/heads/master | ||
Projects MUST monitor or periodically check their external dependencies (including convenience copies) to detect known vulnerabilities, and fix exploitable vulnerabilities or verify them as unexploitable. [dependency_monitoring] | *ONAP project common response* | NexusIQ sonar scan is run on all the projects on a weekly basis | |
The project MUST either:
| *ONAP project common response* | External components are maintained through Maven. The user can get a list of all included components using the maven dependency tree and can update or reuse as they see fit | |
The project SHOULD avoid using deprecated or obsolete functions and APIs where FLOSS alternatives are available in the set of technology it uses (its "technology stack") and to a supermajority of the users the project supports (so that users have ready access to the alternative). [interfaces_current] | We avoid depending on deprecated/obsolete functions. | ||
Question | Description | Sample Answer | |
Quality: Automated test suite | |||
An automated test suite MUST be applied on each check-in to a shared repository for at least one branch. This test suite MUST produce a report on test success or failure. [automated_integration_testing] | *ONAP project common response* | Automatic test suites are run every time before merging the code. The code check in cannot pass with out jenkins posting a +1 on the review. | |
The project MUST add regression tests to an automated test suite for at least 50% of the bugs fixed within the last six months. [regression_tests_added50] | When regressions occur, we add tests for them. | ||
The project MUST have FLOSS automated test suite(s) that provide at least 80% statement coverage if there is at least one FLOSS tool that can measure this criterion in the selected language. [test_statement_coverage80] | We use sonar to measure the code coverage. | ||
Question | Description | Sample Answer | |
Quality: New functionality testing | |||
The project MUST have a formal written policy that as major new functionality is added, tests for the new functionality MUST be added to an automated test suite. [test_policy_mandated] | *ONAP project common response* | Contributing guide lines for development is recorded in | |
The project MUST include, in its documented instructions for change proposals, the policy that tests are to be added for major new functionality. [tests_documented_added] | *ONAP project common response* | This is documented on our wiki: Code Coverage and Static Code Analysis | |
Question | Description | Sample Answer | |
Quality: Warning flags | |||
Projects MUST be maximally strict with warnings in the software produced by the project, where practical. | Build systems run the compile with test flag enabled by default. So any failure in test cases will fail the ci and the merge request. | ||
Question | Description | Sample Answer | |
Secure development knowledge | |||
The project MUST implement secure design principles (from "know_secure_design"), where applicable. If the project is not producing software, select "not applicable" (N/A). [implement_secure_design | Todo Even though we can currently say that we implement secure design to the best of our knowledge there is no documentation on the accepted standards so all projects should either have their own guidelines and principles or we need to create a onap-wide page Sample pages https://docs.zephyrproject.org/latest/security/secure-coding.html https://github.com/coreinfrastructure/best-practices-badge/blob/master/doc/security.md | The project strives to implement secure design principles. | |
Question | Description | Sample Answer | |
Security: Use basic good cryptographic practices | In general if your product does not deal with any cryptographic mechanism you can select N/A for all the questions in this section. Also on the CII badging page you can see that this option has a button with text "Press here if the software produced by the project does not use cryptographic mechanisms"; clicking on this will select N/A for all the questions in this section | ||
The default security mechanisms within the software produced by the project MUST NOT depend on cryptographic algorithms or modes with known serious weaknesses (e.g., the SHA-1 cryptographic hash algorithm or the CBC mode in SSH).[crypto_weaknesses] | All generated certificates are generated with sha256, and furthermore only JWE approved ciphers are used. | ||
The project SHOULD support multiple cryptographic algorithms, so users can quickly switch if one is broken. Common symmetric key algorithms include AES, Twofish, and Serpent. Common cryptographic hash algorithm alternatives include SHA-2 (including SHA-224, SHA-256, SHA-384 AND SHA-512) and SHA-3. | Certificates are managed through AAF micro-service which will be deployed with ONAP suite | ||
The project MUST support storing authentication credentials (such as passwords and dynamic tokens) and private cryptographic keys in files that are separate from other information (such as configuration files, databases, and logs), and permit users to update and replacement them without code recompilation. If the project never processes authentication credentials and private cryptographic keys, select "not applicable" (N/A). | |||
The software produced by the project SHOULD support secure protocols for all of its network communications, such as SSHv2 or later, TLS1.2 or later (HTTPS), IPsec, SFTP, and SNMPv3. Insecure protocols such as FTP, HTTP, telnet, SSLv3 or earlier, and SSHv1 SHOULD be disabled by default, and only enabled if the user specifically configures it. If the software produced by the project does not support network comunications, select "not applicable" (N/A). [crypto_used_network] | The projects supports secure TLS and HTTPS and Insecure protocols are disabled by default in these applications, they cab be over-ridden by user configuration | ||
The software produced by the project SHOULD, if it supports or uses TLS, support at least TLS version 1.2. Note that the predecessor of TLS was called SSL. If the software does not use TLS, select "not applicable" (N/A). [crypto_tls12] | The products support TLS version 1.2 | ||
The software produced by the project MUST, if it supports TLS, perform TLS certificate verification by default when using TLS, including on subresources. If the software does not use TLS, select "not applicable" (N/A). [crypto_certificate_verification] | Certificate validation is done before answering any calls. | ||
The software produced by the project MUST, if it supports TLS, perform certificate verification before sending HTTP headers with private information (such as secure cookies). If the software does not use TLS, select "not applicable" (N/A).[crypto_verification_private] | The certificate is validated before sending http headers or private information. | ||
Question | Description | Sample Answer | |
Security: Secure release | |||
The project MUST cryptographically sign releases of the project results intended for widespread use, and there MUST be a documented process explaining to users how they can obtain the public signing keys and verify the signature(s). The private key for these signature(s) MUST NOT be on site(s) used to directly distribute the software to the public. If releases are not intended for widespread use, select "not applicable" (N/A). [signed_releases] | *ONAP project common response* TDB: I think we will have to discuss with LF to see how we can sign out releases and also create a page on onap wiki may be on a per project basis? | All release artifacts are signed by the Linux Foundation prior to release. | |
It is SUGGESTED that in the version control system, each important version tag (a tag that is part of a major release, minor release, or fixes publicly noted vulnerabilities) be cryptographically signed and verifiable as described in signed_releases. [version_tags_signed] | TBD: Need to talk to LF to see how we can sign our tagged releases | ||
Question | Description | Sample Answer | |
Other Security Issues | |||
The project results MUST check all inputs from potentially untrusted sources to ensure they are valid (a *whitelist*), and reject invalid inputs, if there are any restrictions on the data at all. [input_validation] | The project strives to validate all input to functions. The inputs that are provided to the services are checked against existing models such as OXM or search-abstraction layer and only valid inputs are allowed to be pass through | ||
Hardening mechanisms SHOULD be used in the software produced by the project so that software defects are less likely to result in security vulnerabilities. [hardening] | The project tries to use hardening mechanism whenever possible. Eg we use transaction id for tracking transactions through multiple services and also we use http headers to identify the application where possible | ||
The project MUST provide an assurance case that justifies why its security requirements are met. The assurance case MUST include: a description of the threat model, clear identification of trust boundaries, an argument that secure design principles have been applied, and an argument that common implementation security weaknesses have been countered. (URL required)[assurance_case] | This builds on the document prepared for documentation_security by documenting how those security goals have been met. This can be done either within the documentation_security document itself or in a separate document. This should be answered on a per-project basis. | Point to a security assurance case on wiki.onap.org. | |
Question | Description | Sample Answer | |
Analysis: Static code analysis | |||
The project MUST use at least one static analysis tool with rules or approaches to look for common vulnerabilities in the analyzed language or environment, if there is at least one FLOSS tool that can implement this criterion in the selected language. [static_analysis_common_vulnerabilities] | https://sonar.onap.org | ||
Question | Description | Sample Answer | |
Analysis: Dynamic code analysis | |||
If the software produced by the project includes software written using a memory-unsafe language (e.g., C or C++), then at least one dynamic tool (e.g., a fuzzer or web application scanner) MUST be routinely used in combination with a mechanism to detect memory safety problems such as buffer overwrites. If the project does not produce software written in a memory-unsafe language, choose "not applicable" (N/A). [dynamic_analysis_unsafe] | All the projects use Java which are memory safe that run on JVM. Also the end product runs on a docker container which is run on docker. |

Question | Description | Sample Answer | |
Change Control: Public version-controlled source repository | |||
The project's source repository MUST use a common distributed version control software (e.g., git or mercurial). [repo_distributed] | This question will be filled in automatically from previous levels. | ||
The project MUST clearly identify small tasks that can be performed by new or casual contributors. (URL required) [small_tasks] | TBD DO WE HAVE POLICIES ON THIS? | ||
The project MUST require two-factor authentication (2FA) for developers for changing a central repository or accessing sensitive data (such as private vulnerability reports). This 2FA mechanism MAY use mechanisms without cryptographic mechanisms such as SMS, though that is not recommended. [require_2FA] | *ONAP project common response* This will need to be resolved on an ONAP project basis. We cannot currently answer MET on this item. | Capability is not currently supported. | |
The project's two-factor authentication (2FA) SHOULD use cryptographic mechanisms to prevent impersonation. Short Message Service (SMS) based 2FA, by itself, does NOT meet this criterion, since it is not encrypted.

Status of Security Application Quality Requirements on Nov 13, 2019
There are six Security requirements affecting Application Quality at the Passing level, and all but two projects have Met these or marked them N/A.
Below are the Security requirements affecting Application Quality for the Silver and Gold badging levels. Most projects have already answered a large percentage of these, with the majority answering Met or N/A. The project counts are given. There are three requirements that have a low answer rate, and those are shown in red.
Silver / Gold
assurance_case (5 of 38 projects are Met or N/A)
The project MUST provide an assurance case that justifies why its security requirements are met. The assurance case MUST include: a description of the threat model, clear identification of trust boundaries, an argument that secure design principles have been applied, and an argument that common implementation security weaknesses have been countered. (URL required)
hardening (9 of 38 projects are Met or N/A)
Hardening mechanisms MUST be used in the software produced by the project so that software defects are less likely to result in security vulnerabilities.
crypto_algorithm_agility (24 of 38 projects are Met or N/A)
The project MUST support multiple cryptographic algorithms, so users can quickly switch if one is broken. Common symmetric key algorithms include AES, Twofish, and Serpent. Common cryptographic hash algorithm alternatives include SHA-2 (including SHA-224, SHA-256, SHA-384 AND SHA-512) and SHA-3.
crypto_certificate_verification (30 of 38 projects are Met or N/A)
The software produced by the project MUST, if it supports TLS, perform TLS certificate verification by default when using TLS, including on subresources. If the software does not use TLS, select 'not applicable' (N/A).
crypto_credential_agility (20 of 38 projects are Met or N/A)
The project MUST support storing authentication credentials (such as passwords and dynamic tokens) and private cryptographic keys in files that are separate from other information (such as configuration files, databases, and logs), and permit users to update and replace them without code recompilation. If the project never processes authentication credentials and private cryptographic keys, select 'not applicable' (N/A).
crypto_tls12 (27 of 38 projects are Met or N/A)
The software produced by the project MUST, if it supports or uses TLS, support at least TLS version 1.2. Note that the predecessor of TLS was called SSL. If the software does not use TLS, select 'not applicable' (N/A).
crypto_used_network (26 of 38 projects are Met or N/A)
The software produced by the project MUST support secure protocols for all of its network communications, such as SSHv2 or later, TLS1.2 or later (HTTPS), IPsec, SFTP, and SNMPv3. Insecure protocols such as FTP, HTTP, telnet, SSLv3 or earlier, and SSHv1 SHOULD be disabled by default, and only enabled if the user specifically configures it. If the software produced by the project does not support network communications, select 'not applicable' (N/A).
crypto_verification_private (26 of 38 projects are Met or N/A)
The software produced by the project MUST, if it supports TLS, perform certificate verification before sending HTTP headers with private information (such as secure cookies). If the software does not use TLS, select 'not applicable' (N/A).
crypto_weaknesses (35 of 38 projects are Met or N/A)
The default security mechanisms within the software produced by the project MUST NOT depend on cryptographic algorithms or modes with known serious weaknesses (e.g., the SHA-1 cryptographic hash algorithm or the CBC mode in SSH).
implement_secure_design (22 of 38 projects are Met or N/A)
The project MUST implement secure design principles (from 'know_secure_design'), where applicable. If the project is not producing software, select 'not applicable' (N/A).
input_validation (21 of 38 projects are Met or N/A)
The project results MUST check all inputs from potentially untrusted sources to ensure they are valid (a *whitelist*), and reject invalid inputs, if there are any restrictions on the data at all.
Gold Only
security_review (2 of 38 projects are Met or N/A)
The project MUST have performed a security review within the last 5 years. This review MUST consider the security requirements and security boundary.
