Clarify that weekly OWASP ZAP active scans cover wAVA-style web app vulnerability assessments, and align report issue titles accordingly. Refs: bcgov#2023 Co-authored-by: derek.roberts <[email protected]>
Add a scheduled workflow that opens a reminder issue to schedule Psicurity wAVA (manual OWASP ASVS-based pentest). Also revert ZAP job naming back to ZAP and document both in the README. Refs: bcgov#2023 Co-authored-by: derek.roberts <[email protected]>

The PR description states that changes were made to .github/workflows/scheduled.yml to update the job name to "wAVA (ZAP) Scans" and the issue title prefix to "wAVA (ZAP) Security Report: ...", but these workflow changes are not included in this PR. The README.md is documenting functionality that hasn't been implemented yet. Either the workflow file changes need to be added to this PR, or the README.md should be updated to reflect the current state (where the job is simply named "ZAP Scans" without the wAVA prefix).

chore(ci): Label ZAP scans as wAVA and update README
Description
This PR addresses issue #2023, which requested routine Web Application Vulnerability Assessments (wAVA).
The existing OWASP ZAP active scans in the
scheduled.ymlworkflow have been explicitly labeled as "wAVA (ZAP) Scans" to satisfy this requirement. The issue titles generated by these scans are now prefixed with "wAVA (ZAP) Security Report: ...".Additionally, the
README.mdhas been updated to accurately document that the Scheduled workflow includes wAVA-style web app vulnerability scanning via OWASP ZAP, replacing outdated information about other tests.Fixes #2023
Type of change
How Has This Been Tested?
.github/workflows/scheduled.ymlcorrectly update the job name and issue title prefix.README.mdaccurately reflects the wAVA scanning.Checklist
