These are the Gold level criteria. You can also view the Passing or Silver level criteria.

        

 Basics 5/5

  • Identification

    Data Collection Analytics and Events (DCAE) is the data collection and analysis subsystem of ONAP. Its functions include among other things the collection of measurement and fault data from the network entities (Virtual Network Functions, Physical Network Functions, etc). It provides also a framework for the normalization of data format, the transportation of data, analysis of data, and generations of ONAP events which can be received by other ONAP components such as Policy for subsequent operations like closed loops.

  • Prerequisites


    The project MUST achieve a silver level badge. [achieve_silver]

  • Project oversight


    The project MUST have a "bus factor" of 2 or more. (URL required) [bus_factor]

    The project MUST have at least two unassociated significant contributors. (URL required) [contributors_unassociated]

    DCAE has 8 companies contributing for the current/Jakarta release; details on contributing companies/members here - https://tinyurl.com/y8mgdmu7


  • Other


    The project MUST include a license statement in each source file. This MAY be done by including the following inside a comment near the beginning of each file: SPDX-License-Identifier: [SPDX license expression for project]. [license_per_file]

    all source and documentation files are required to have license statements


  • 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]

    Git and and its code review add-on Gerrit are used.



    The project MUST clearly identify small tasks that can be performed by new or casual contributors. (URL required) [small_tasks]

    We have various items in the backlog identified for this purpose: https://jira.onap.org/browse/DCAEGEN2-852?jql=labels%20%3D%20DCAE-OPENCONTRIBUTION



    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]

    Linux foundation logins for access to gerrit and jira require the use of an One-Time Password (OTP) authenticator.



    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. [secure_2FA]

    The 2FA used must be an One-Time Password (OTP) authenticator application, such as FreeOTP or Authy or numerous others.


  • Coding standards


    The project MUST document its code review requirements, including how code review is conducted, what must be checked, and what is required to be acceptable. (URL required) [code_review_standards]

    https://wiki.onap.org/display/DW/DCAE+Committer+Guidelines (and pages pointed to by it) explains how a committer is to look at each pull request submitted via Gerritt.



    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 [two_person_review]

    Self-commits are not allowed. https://wiki.onap.org/display/DW/Code+Review


  • Working build system


    The project MUST have a reproducible build. If no building occurs (e.g., scripting languages where the source code is used directly instead of being compiled), select "not applicable" (N/A). (URL required) [build_reproducible]
  • Automated test suite


    A test suite MUST be invocable in a standard way for that language. (URL required) [test_invocation]

    Junit tests are invoked from mvn. Pytest tests are invoked by running pytest from command line. Rebar3 tests are invoked from command line by running rebarr3. All are included as part of Jenkin builds. All are standard testing tools invoked in standard way. Robot Framework tests are invoked by standard Robot methodology, also triggered by Jenkins build jobs. https://wiki.onap.org/display/DW/Continuous+Integration https://wiki.onap.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=4718718



    The project MUST implement continuous integration, where new or changed code is frequently integrated into a central code repository and automated tests are run on the result. (URL required) [test_continuous_integration]

    For each pull request, the project needs to be built successfully before the Merge option becomes activated. The test will be run automatically during the building process as well. Once build successfully and all tests has past, the Merge option will be activated.

    https://wiki.onap.org/display/DW/Continuous+Integration https://wiki.onap.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=4718718



    The project MUST have FLOSS automated test suite(s) that provide at least 90% statement coverage if there is at least one FLOSS tool that can measure this criterion in the selected language. [test_statement_coverage90]


    The project MUST have FLOSS automated test suite(s) that provide at least 80% branch coverage if there is at least one FLOSS tool that can measure this criterion in the selected language. [test_branch_coverage80]

  • Use basic good cryptographic practices

    Note that some software does not need to use cryptographic mechanisms. If your project produces software that (1) includes, activates, or enables encryption functionality, and (2) might be released from the United States (US) to outside the US or to a non-US-citizen, you may be legally required to take a few extra steps. Typically this just involves sending an email. For more information, see the encryption section of Understanding Open Source Technology & US Export Controls.

    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 MUST 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_used_network]

    All platform component and DCAE services interfaces are switched to TLS. 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 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_tls12]

    all TLS libraries are current


  • Secured delivery against man-in-the-middle (MITM) attacks


    The project website, repository (if accessible via the web), and download site (if separate) MUST include key hardening headers with nonpermissive values. (URL required) [hardened_site]

    https://securityheaders.io/ gives an A grade for the project websites - wiki.onap.org - gerrit.onap.org - nexus.onap.org - nexus3.onap.org - readthedocs.io


  • Other security issues


    The project MUST have performed a security review within the last 5 years. This review MUST consider the security requirements and security boundary. [security_review]

    DCAE security assessment documented in the following wiki - https://wiki.onap.org/display/DW/DCAE+-+ONAP+Security+Review+Questionnaire+Template



    Hardening mechanisms MUST be used in the software produced by the project so that software defects are less likely to result in security vulnerabilities. (URL required) [hardening]

    The project tries to use hardening mechanism whenever possible however the project as whole is not complaint (e.g DL-Admin UI)


  • Dynamic code analysis


    The project MUST apply at least one dynamic analysis tool to any proposed major production release of the software produced by the project before its release. [dynamic_analysis]

    ONAP does not employ dynamic code analysis beyond what SONAR and CLM (Nexus IQ) analysis. The security subcommittee is undergoing a task identifying suitable dynamic analysis tool but at this time none has been identified.

    Prior to El-Alto release - Samsung performed PEN test for all ONAP components and created jira (OJSI) for remediation - https://jira.onap.org/browse/OJSI-201?jql=project%20%3D%20OJSI



    The project SHOULD include many run-time assertions in the software it produces and check those assertions during dynamic analysis. [dynamic_analysis_enable_assertions]

    ONAP does not employ dynamic code analysis beyond what SONAR and CLM (Nexus IQ) analysis. The security subcommittee is undergoing a task identifying suitable dynamic analysis tool but at this time none has been identified.
