SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires boto3, kubernetes, and includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the enforcement of security policies and compliance standards, reducing manual effort and minimizing security risks.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Policy as Code: Define and enforce security policies using OPA (Open Policy Agent).
  • Vulnerability Scanning: Automatically scan container images for high and critical vulnerabilities.
  • Compliance Checking: Verify AWS resource configurations against CIS benchmarks.
  • Automated Remediation: Automatically fix non-compliant Kubernetes resources.
  • Use Case: Ensure all new container images deployed to production are free of critical vulnerabilities and comply with company security policies by integrating this Skill into your CI/CD pipeline.

Quick Start

Use the security-compliance-automation skill to scan the image 'my-app:latest' for vulnerabilities and check its compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions about Security & Compliance Automation

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate AWS compliance checks against CIS benchmarks?▼

To automate AWS compliance checks against CIS benchmarks, this Skill evaluates your resource configurations via the boto3 Python library to identify non-compliant settings and enforce security policies automatically without manual auditing.

What is the best way to scan container images for vulnerabilities in a CI/CD pipeline?▼

Scanning container images for vulnerabilities in a CI/CD pipeline is done using Trivy integration to automatically detect high and critical vulnerabilities, ensuring non-compliant images are blocked before production deployment.

Can I use OPA to enforce security policies on Kubernetes resources?▼

Yes, you can enforce security policies on Kubernetes resources using OPA (Open Policy Agent), which allows you to define policy-as-code and automatically remediate non-compliant configurations through the kubernetes Python library.

Do I need Trivy installed to run vulnerability scanning on container images?▼

Yes, Trivy is required to run vulnerability scanning on container images. The Skill depends on Trivy alongside the boto3 and kubernetes Python libraries to execute automated security and compliance checks.

How does automated remediation work for non-compliant Kubernetes resources?▼

Automated remediation for non-compliant Kubernetes resources works by applying policy-as-code rules defined in OPA, detecting configuration violations, and automatically correcting the resources using the kubernetes Python library.
