KICS - Keep Infrastructure as Code Secure KICS - Keep Infrastructure as Code Secure


Find security vulnerabilities, compliance issues, and infrastructure misconfigurations early in the development cycle of your infrastructure-as-code with KICS by Checkmarx.

KICS stands for Keeping Infrastructure as Code Secure, it is open source and is a must-have for any cloud native project.

Supported Platforms


Terraform Kubernetes Docker
CloudFormation Ansible Helm
OpenAPI gRPC Azure Resource Manager Google Deployment Manager
Cloud Development Kit SAM Docker Compose Knative
Crossplane Pulumi ServerlessFW

Beta Features

Databricks             NIFCloud              TencentCloud    

By default, Databricks, NIFCloud, and TencentCloud queries run when you scan Terraform files using KICS.

The Severity and Description of these queries are still under review.

Getting Started

Setting up and using KICS is super-easy.

Interested in more advanced stuff?

  • Deep dive into KICS queries.
  • Understand how to integrate KICS in your favourite CI/CD pipelines.

See KICS documentation for more details and topics.

How it Works

What makes KICS really powerful and popular is its built-in extensibility. This extensibility is achieved by:

  • Fully customizable and adjustable heuristics rules, called queries. These can be easily edited, extended and added.
  • Robust but yet simple architecture, which allows quick addition of support for new Infrastructure as Code solutions.
