A Deep Dive Into Terraform Static Code Analysis Tools: Features and Comparisons
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Aqua Security (acquired in 2021) Age: First released on GitHub on March 5th, 2019 License: MIT License tfsec project is no longer actively maintained in favor of the Trivy tool.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.

My Cloud Resume Challenge Journey
Once I completed the main steps of the challenge, I went back to do some security modificaions including enabled DNSSEC, deploying WAF (I ended up removing this as the costs were quite high and instead set up account level throttling for my API) and running IAM Access Analyser to flag anything I'd over permissioned. I also set up Git commit signing and added a new Git Action workflow to run Tfsec any time I updated my terraform config files
