CERT-Bund Offline Kit Seed Data
This directory stores offline snapshots for the CERT-Bund connector. The artefacts mirror the public JSON search and export endpoints so air‑gapped deployments can hydrate the connector without contacting the portal.
⚠️ Distribution notice – CERT-Bund advisories are published by BSI (Federal Office for Information Security, Germany). Review the portal terms of use before redistributing the snapshots. Always keep the JSON payloads and accompanying SHA-256 sums together.

Use certbund-offline-manifest.json to feed the Offline Kit build: every
entry contains source, from, to, sha256, capturedAt, and the
relative file path. The manifest is deterministic when regenerated with
the tooling described below.
Tooling
Run the helper under tools/ to capture fresh snapshots or regenerate
the manifest:
python tools/certbund_offline_snapshot.py --output seed-data/cert-bund
See the connector operations guide
(docs/ops/concelier-certbund-operations.md) for detailed usage,
including how to provide cookies/tokens when the portal requires manual
authentication.
Git hygiene
- JSON payloads and checksums are ignored by Git. Generate them locally when preparing an Offline Kit bundle.
- Commit documentation, scripts, and manifest templates only – never the exported advisory data itself.
