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
Beta Features
In order to run the Databricks and NIFCloud queries, use the --experimental-queries flag when running KICS.
Getting Started
Setting up and using KICS is super-easy.
- First, see how to install and get KICS running.

Interested in more advanced stuff?
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.
Contribution
KICS is a true community project. It's built as an open source from day one, and anyone can find his own way to contribute to the project. Check out how, within just minutes, you can start making a difference, by sharing your expertise with a community of thousands of security experts and software developers.
