KICS, which stands for Keeping Infrastructure as Code Secure, is an essential component of every cloud-native project and is open source. Use KICS by Checkmarx to identify security flaws, legal compliance problems, and infrastructure misconfigurations early in the development cycle of your infrastructure-as-code.
KICS’s built-in extensibility is what makes it so strong and well-liked. Achieving this extensibility entails:
Queries are fully flexible and changeable heuristic rules. These are simple to alter, expand upon, and include.
a robust but still straightforward architecture that makes it simple to add support for new Infrastructure as Code solutions quickly.
KICS was developed using Open Policy Agent and is entirely open source (OPA).
Rego was a natural choice as a query language to implement security queries, while Golang’s speed, simplicity, and dependability made it the ideal choice for creating KICS.
For AWS, GCP, Azure, and other cloud providers, we have created more than a thousand ready-to-use queries that cover a wide range of vulnerabilities checks.
KICS’s extendable pipeline of IaC language parsers and pluggable architecture make it simple to incorporate additional IaC languages and queries.
A command-line interface, parser, queries execution engine, IaC providers, security queries, and results writer are the key parts of KICS at a high level.
