Container and Infrastructure Security Tools

Container security tools address the unique challenges of containerized applications. Twistlock (now Prisma Cloud) provides comprehensive container security from build through runtime. Aqua Security offers similar capabilities with strong Kubernetes integration. Open-source alternatives like Trivy and Clair provide effective vulnerability scanning for container images.

Infrastructure as Code (IaC) security tools prevent misconfigurations before deployment. Checkov scans Terraform, CloudFormation, and Kubernetes manifests for security issues. TFSec focuses specifically on Terraform security. Cloud provider tools like AWS Config Rules enable custom security policies for cloud resources.
