Infrastructure Configuration Scanning

via “infrastructure-as-code (iac) misconfiguration scanning”

Developer security — AI-powered SAST, dependency scanning, container/IaC security, IDE integration.

Unique: Analyzes declarative infrastructure definitions against a proprietary policy database and provides remediation recommendations with corrected IaC code examples, integrated into CI/CD pipelines for pre-deployment security gates; supports multiple IaC frameworks (Terraform, CloudFormation, Kubernetes, Helm, ARM) in a unified platform

vs others: More comprehensive than Checkov or TFLint because it provides remediation code examples and integrates into Snyk's unified platform with consistent workflows; more developer-friendly than Terraform Cloud's policy enforcement because it provides inline recommendations with code examples rather than just blocking deployments

All-in-one appsec platform with AI-powered triage.

Unique: Combines IaC scanning with cloud-native context awareness — the system understands not just the IaC syntax but also the actual cloud provider APIs and security implications (e.g., recognizing that a Terraform aws_s3_bucket_public_access_block resource overrides bucket policies). This contextual understanding enables more accurate misconfiguration detection than syntax-only parsers.

vs others: Faster IaC scanning than Checkov or TFLint due to incremental analysis and caching; AI-driven prioritization reduces false positives by focusing on misconfigurations that are actually exploitable in the user's cloud environment.
