Route 53 hosted zone in one AWS account, hosting infrastructure in another. A single Lambda@Edge function handles both viewer-request URL rewriting and viewer-response security headers, including a strict Content-Security-Policy that the build verifies against before it can ship.

SonarQube quality gate, OWASP Dependency-Check, and Trivy filesystem and image scans run in sequence, followed by a Kubernetes rollout. A failing gate stops the build rather than producing a warning nobody reads.
