Checkov
Checkov Scan is an open-source static analysis tool that scans infrastructure-as-code (IaC) files to identify potential security risks and compliance violations.
Auditor Job Name: Checkov Scan
Auditor image:
registry.gitlab.com/whitespots-public/security-images/checkov:3.2.108
AppSec Portal Importer Name: Checkov Scan
Checkov supports various IaC formats, including Terraform, Kubernetes, AWS CloudFormation, and Azure Resource Manager templates. Checkov can be used to identify misconfigurations and enforce compliance with industry-standard policies and regulations.
Checkov Scan works by analyzing the code structure and applying a set of built-in and custom rules. The rules are written in YAML format and can be easily extended or modified to fit specific use cases. Each rule checks for a specific condition, such as the use of insecure protocols or the exposure of sensitive data, and generates a report with the findings. The report can be exported in various formats, such as JSON, HTML, or JUnit.
