Enhance Your IaC Security with Carbonetes' BrainIAC
Effortlessly scan your IAC code for security misconfigurations and compliance issues. With hundreds of pre-defined rules and support for major platforms like Kubernetes, CloudFormation, Terraform, and more…
“
Infrastructure as Code (IaC) transforms IT management by enabling automation, consistency, and scalability. However, the frequent reuse of IaC makes it crucial to ensure security, as any misconfiguration can lead to widespread vulnerabilities. By integrating security into the IaC process, teams can identify and resolve issues early, reducing risks and avoiding costly fixes later. Empower your DevOps team now with Carbonetes BrainIAC.
Why IaC Security Matters
Not One Size Fits All
Much of security is implementing best practices. This is most evident in security policies with standard solutions like NIST and CIS. However, IaC doesn’t fit the “single standard” model because different applications and modules of applications will require different rights.
Best Practices
Your IaC tool, such as Carbonetes BrainIAC, should provide secure configuration recommendations, scan your code for deviations from best practices, and suggest improvements. It's then your decision to adjust based on the specific needs of your application.
Least Necessary Privilege
In an ideal world all deployments adhere to best practices, but sometimes apps require more privilege or flexibility. In these cases, you simply want to limit these deviations or “misconfigurations” are limited to those that are necessary for the specific application.
IaC Reuse
Developers and DevOps like to reuse code whenever possible for reasons of efficiency, stability and security. While reusing IaC is recommended, you need to ensure that the IaC you use adheres to principle of least necessary privilege. This means scanning each IaC to ensure your IaC is secure.
Platform/Service Considerations
Your IaC must address the rules of the platform you’ll deploy on. This includes containers, container orchestrators like Kuberenetes, cloud platforms, and cloud services.
