Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

tfsec vs chekhov vs terrascan - What do pople recommend?
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.

Deploying to Azure with Terraform and GitHub Actions
The next step in our pipeline is to do some static code analysis of our Terraform code to spot any potential misconfigurations. I'm using tfsec for this, but tfsec is migrating over to Trivy - I'll cover that in a future blog post, but for now we can add this using the following:

tfsec Owner/Maintainer: Aqua Security (acquired in 2021) Age: First released on GitHub on March 5th, 2019 License: MIT License tfsec project is no longer actively maintained in favor of the Trivy tool. But because many people still use it and it's quite famous, I added tfsec to this comparison. However, I recommend against using it for new projects.
