Terraform is providing cloud infrastructure automation with infrastructure and policies as code, using Sentinel policy as code to embed policies. HashiCorp has introduced the Terraform Foundational Policies Library for Terraform Cloud and Enterprise, which provides controls for common security standards such as those defined by the Center for Internet Security (CIS). The library focuses on developing controls that align with CIS Benchmarks for Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform. It implements over 40 controls to secure commonly used cloud services like networking, databases, storage, and compute services. CIS Benchmarks provide prescriptive guidance for establishing a secure baseline for each cloud service provider, covering topics such as Identity and Access Management, Logging and Monitoring, and encryption of storage, disks, and database services.
