Cloudanix Joins AWS ISV Accelerate Program
Use case · IaC security

IaC findings should know the cloud they will create.
Shift left, then connect right.

Infrastructure as Code scanning catches risky changes before merge. Cloudanix goes further by connecting IaC findings to runtime resources, drift, identity blast radius, compliance controls and attack paths after deployment.

The problem

IaC scanning without runtime context creates noisy pull requests.

Developers need to know which findings matter before they merge.

01

Policy rules lack impact

A public ingress rule might be acceptable on one resource and dangerous on another. IaC scanners need cloud context to decide.

02

Drift happens after merge

Console edits, emergency changes and imported resources can make runtime state different from what IaC says should exist.

03

Ownership gets split

App teams own repos, platform teams own modules, security owns controls. Findings need to route to the right owner.

How it works

Connect IaC policy to runtime reality.

01

Scan proposed changes

Cloudanix checks Terraform, CloudFormation, Kubernetes manifests and related IaC for security, compliance, secrets and risky permission patterns.

02

Predict runtime impact

Plans are mapped to known cloud resources, owners, environments, data sensitivity, identities and attack-path impact where possible.

03

Detect drift

After deployment, Cloudanix compares runtime cloud state to expected IaC posture and flags console changes, unmanaged resources and reopened exposures.

04

Close the loop

Findings route to repository owners with remediation guidance, evidence, compliance mapping and links to the affected runtime assets.

Why Cloudanix

What changes when this use case runs on one graph.

Code-to-cloud lineage

Cloudanix ties the IaC file to the resource it creates and the runtime risk that resource carries.

Compliance-aware PRs

A risky change can show which SOC 2, PCI, HIPAA, ISO, NIST or regional control it affects before merge.

Runtime drift included

Security does not end when the PR merges. Cloudanix watches whether the deployed cloud state stays aligned.

What Our Users Are Saying

Customer Reviews

Cloudanix is trusted by security leaders worldwide to deliver proactive, reliable, and cutting-edge cloud security.

One day, I changed the password of a root account, and my CTO called me within less than a minute to confirm if I did so. I was not expecting a reaction this quick. He told me Cloudanix alerted him of this password change and that he wanted to confirm as it was a critical security notification. I couldn't believe it!

Managing third-party partner access was once a major concern for our security posture. With Cloudanix JIT Cloud, we've effectively achieved zero third-party risk. We can now grant access confidently, knowing that it is temporary, audited, and automatically revoked, resulting in a 100% reduction in our privileged access exposure.

Implementing Cloudanix JIT internally allowed us to practice what we preach. By eliminating permanent access to our own clouds and databases, we've neutralized the risk of standing privileges, ensuring our own 'keys to the kingdom' are never left exposed.

The problem with permissions is a lot of times, the gaps are left open due to oversights from inside the organization itself. With Cloudanix's CIEM, we get a complete view of user permissions and access. This enables us to update the permissions, reducing the attack surface.

Common questions

Asked plainly.

What IaC formats does Cloudanix support?

Cloudanix supports common IaC formats including Terraform, CloudFormation and Kubernetes manifests, with coverage expanding across related cloud and CI/CD configuration formats.

How is this different from a standalone IaC scanner?

Standalone scanners evaluate files. Cloudanix connects files to cloud resources, identity blast radius, compliance controls, runtime drift and attack paths.

Can Cloudanix block pull requests?

Yes. Cloudanix can comment on PRs, fail checks or require approval based on policy, severity, environment, compliance scope and runtime impact.

Does Cloudanix detect drift?

Yes. Runtime cloud state is compared against expected IaC posture so console edits, unmanaged resources and reopened exposures can be detected.

Can Cloudanix help developers fix IaC issues?

Yes. Findings include the affected file, control, risky resource, runtime impact and remediation guidance. Where appropriate, Cloudanix can suggest safer configuration changes.

How does this relate to Code Security?

IaC security is part of Cloudanix Code Security, alongside SAST, SCA, secrets and container image scanning.
