[deep-report] Daily Security Observability only audits 8 of 100 firewall-enabled runs, understating block-rate sample size #65086

Description

@github-actions

Description

The Daily Security Observability workflow lists 100 firewall-enabled runs each cycle but only performs per-run audit on the 8 runs matched by its DIFC candidate-set selection (7 succeeded this run; 1 run's artifacts were unavailable). The firewall totals it reports (e.g. "186 requests monitored, 0 blocked") are therefore aggregated from those 8 runs only, not from all 100 listed runs, which understates both the sample size and the confidence of the "0% block rate" conclusion. The report's own recommendations section flags this as a coverage gap.

Expected Impact

Firewall block-rate and domain-allowlist findings reflect the full firewall-enabled run population instead of an 8-run DIFC-driven subset, making "no blocked requests this week" a statement about the whole fleet rather than ~8% of it.

Suggested Agent

GitHub Copilot coding agent or the workflow's own maintainer agent — extend the Daily Security Observability workflow's audit loop to run audit across all 100 firewall-enabled runs (or a representative random sample sized independently of the DIFC candidate list), and report both counts.

Estimated Effort

Quick (<1 hour)
