SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires checkov, tfsec, terrascan, kics, kubesec, trivy, opa, conftest, and includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) and assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the process of scanning infrastructure as code (IaC) for security vulnerabilities, reducing the time and effort required for security audits and compliance checks.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • IaC Security Scanning: Performs automated security scanning on Terraform, CloudFormation, Kubernetes manifests, Helm charts, and ARM templates.
  • Integration with CI/CD: Easily integrate with CI/CD pipelines for continuous security scanning.
  • Use Case: Use this Skill in your CI/CD pipeline to automatically scan infrastructure as code for security issues before deployment.

Quick Start

Run the scan on your IaC files using the iac-security skill with the command: iac-security scan /path/to/your/iac/files.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate infrastructure as code security scanning for Terraform and Kubernetes manifests?▼

You can automate infrastructure as code security scanning by integrating tools like Checkov, tfsec, and Terrascan into your pipelines to continuously evaluate Terraform and Kubernetes manifests for vulnerabilities.

Can I integrate IaC security scanning into my CI/CD pipeline for compliance checks?▼

Yes, you can integrate IaC security scanning into your CI/CD pipeline to automatically evaluate infrastructure configurations for security vulnerabilities and compliance before deployment occurs.

Does this infrastructure as code scanning support CloudFormation and Helm charts?▼

Yes, infrastructure as code scanning supports CloudFormation, Helm charts, Kubernetes manifests, and ARM templates, applying checks across multiple cloud and container orchestration platforms.

What tools are required to perform automated security audits on infrastructure as code?▼

Performing automated security audits on infrastructure as code requires scanning tools like Checkov, tfsec, Terrascan, KICS, kubesec, Trivy, and policy engines like OPA and Conftest.

Why should I use multiple IaC security scanners like tfsec and Checkov together?▼

Using multiple IaC security scanners like tfsec and Checkov together provides broader vulnerability detection coverage across your infrastructure code, reducing blind spots in your security audits.
