  • Monokle 1.7.0 Integrates Open Policy Agent (OPA) Validation
    1 project | /r/kubernetes | 3 May 2022
    This integration enables hints and warnings when your manifest violates a given policy. Kudos to our friends at Aquasec for sharing their security team’s rules with us. These rules are used in trivy and open sourced through the defsec project and now form part of Monokle, too!

  • tfsec vs chekhov vs terrascan - What do pople recommend?
    2 projects | /r/Terraform | 28 Apr 2021
    While I think the major problem is how the https://github.com/triat/terraform-security-scan action works in that it compiles tfsec from scratch on each run. There is a major issue to me with how the tfsec team manages their project it seems like instead of releasing new versions of their tool they will go back and retag new code. This has introduced issues where the tfsec will just randomly fail one day because of a bug, we've had it happen about 3 times in the last four months.
