tfsec is a static analysis security scanner for your Terraform code. Designed to run locally and in your CI pipelines, developer-friendly output and fully documented checks mean detection and remediation can take place as quickly and efficiently as possible. tfsec takes a developer-first approach to scanning your Terraform templates; using static analysis and deep integration with the official HCL parser it ensures that security issues can be detected before your infrastructure changes take effect. Checks for misconfigurations across all major (and some minor) cloud providers. Applies (and embellishes) user-defined Rego policies. Supports multiple output formats: CLI, JSON, SARIF, CSV, CheckStyle, and JUnit. Configurable (via CLI flags and/or config file). Very fast, capable of quickly scanning huge repositories. Plugins for popular IDEs available (JetBrains, VSCode and Vim).

  • Scans modules (local and remote)
  • Evaluates HCL expressions as well as literal values
  • Evaluates Terraform functions
