KICS

The present repository contains the source code of the Datadog version of KICS. KICS is a project originally owned by Checkmarx to find security vulnerabilities, compliance issues, and infrastructure misconfigurations early in the development cycle of your infrastructure-as-code.

At Datadog, we use it to scan your Terraform code and output a SARIF file and report it to our backend.

For more details about the full capabilities of the tool, please refer to the upstream repository.

Contributing code

This repository is a fork of Checkmarx KICS.

Before contributing, please ensure you want to change a Datadog specific behavior of the scanner. If not, please consider contributing directly to the upstream repository.

If it is about Datadog's specific behavior, a contributing guide should come up soon. In the meantime, please open an issue to start the discussion with us
