While the use of Infrastructure as Code has gained significant popularity as organizations embrace cloud computing and DevOps practices, the speed and flexibility that IaC provides can also introduce the potential for misconfigurations and security vulnerabilities.
IaC misconfigurations are mistakes, or oversights, in the configuration of infrastructure resources and environments that happen when using IaC tools and frameworks.
IaC misconfigurations can, of course, lead to security vulnerabilities, but they can also make infrastructure management and maintenance more challenging for AppSec managers and development teams.
To make it easier for development teams to address the various types of IaC misconfigurations, Checkmarx is pleased to introduce AI Guided Remediation for IaC Security and KICS. Security Platform, with KICS is a free, open source solution for static analysis of IaC files.
Powered by GPT4, AI Guided Remediation provides actionable remediation steps and advice to guide teams through the process of remediating IaC misconfigurations identified by Checkmarx IaC Security and KICS. This helps organizations address issues in their IaC files and deploy their applications faster and safer.
IaC Security and AI Guided Remediation is a powerful combination that makes it faster and easier for developers to more deeply understand and quickly remediate misconfigurations.
