Summary0009649: Brine (Security Orchestration Suite)
Description

Brine is a DevSecOps orchestration suite that streamlines the execution of 11 security testing tools through a single, intuitive GUI. It automates tool installation, updates, and multi-tool scanning, aggregating results into unified reports.

Value Proposition for Kali Linux
While Kali includes several powerful scanners, running a comprehensive full-stack audit often requires a user to manually manage dependencies for over a dozen separate tools (Python venvs, NPM packages, Go binaries). Brine solves this by:

Orchestrating Toolsets: Automatically detects code type and runs only relevant scanners (SAST, IaC, SCA, Secrets).
Unified Reporting: Merges results from disparate tools into a single, normalised TXT or JSON export.
Maintenance Automation: Provides a "one-click" update path for all integrated tools.

Expanded Coverage: Introduces tools like Checkov, tfsec, Hadolint, and Safety which are not current Kali defaults, alongside a custom engine, Eleven, for OWASP Top 10 sweeps.

Integrated Toolset
Secret Scanning: Gitleaks, TruffleHog
SCA & Dependency: pip-audit, Safety, npm, yarn
Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Checkov, tfsec, Hadolint
Static Analysis (SAST): Bandit
Internal Engine: Eleven (Custom OWASP Top 10 Sweep)

Technical Details
Architecture: Electron-based wrapper.
Dependency Management: Python tools are isolated in a dedicated virtual environment (~/.config/brine/venv) to prevent system-level conflicts.
Platform: Currently packaged as a Debian installer (.deb).

Hello,

Thanks for your submission. We can’t package every infosec tool, so we prioritize those with wider adoption and community usage.

Best of luck with your project.
