Dataset Card for SEI CERT C Coding Standard (Wiki rules)

Structured export of the SEI CERT C Coding Standard rules from the official SEI wiki: one row per rule with titles, prose, and code examples.

Dataset Details

Dataset Description

This dataset is a tabular snapshot of CERT C secure coding guidance as published on the SEI Confluence wiki. It is intended for retrieval, training data for code assistants, lint-rule authoring, and security education—not as a substitute for the authoritative standard.

  • Curated by: Derived from public SEI CERT wiki pages; packaged as CSV by the dataset maintainer.
  • Funded by [optional]: [More Information Needed]
  • Shared by [optional]: [More Information Needed]
  • Language(s) (NLP): English (rule text and embedded code).
  • License: Compilation distributed as other; source material is the publicly published SEI CERT standard on the CMU SEI wiki. Verify licensing for your use case with CMU SEI / the wiki terms.

Dataset Sources [optional]

Uses

Direct Use

Secure coding education, semantic search over rules, benchmarking static analyzers, and supervised fine-tuning for security-focused models.

Out-of-Scope Use

Not a legal or compliance certification. Do not treat scraped wiki text as legally binding; always consult the current official standard and your policies.

Dataset Structure

All rows share the same columns (scraped from the SEI CERT Confluence wiki):

Column Description
language Language identifier for the rule set
page_id Confluence page id
page_url Canonical wiki URL for the rule page
chapter Chapter label when present
section Section label when present
rule_id Rule identifier (e.g. API00-C, CON50-J)
title Short rule title
intro Normative / explanatory text
noncompliant_code Noncompliant example(s) when present
compliant_solution Compliant example(s) when present
risk_assessment Risk / severity notes when present
breadcrumb Wiki breadcrumb trail when present

Dataset Creation

Curation Rationale

Machine-readable rule text lowers the barrier to tooling and research aligned with CERT guidance.

Source Data

Data Collection and Processing

Pages were scraped from the SEI wiki; fields were normalized into CSV columns. See the companion scrape_sei_wiki.py in the source project if applicable.
