TerraSecure

ML-Powered Infrastructure as Code Security Scanner

Catch cloud misconfigurations at build time — before they become breaches.

The Problem with Cloud Security Today

$4.88M average cost of a cloud data breach in 2024 (IBM Cost of a Data Breach Report)

82% of cloud breaches trace back to misconfigurations in Infrastructure as Code (Gartner)

Traditional IaC scanners like Checkov and Trivy are rule-based engines that generate hundreds of alerts — with 12–15% being false positives. Security teams burn hours triaging noise while real vulnerabilities slip through.

TerraSecure takes a different approach: a pre-trained XGBoost ML model, trained on real-world breach data (Capital One, Uber, Tesla), combined with AWS Bedrock AI analysis — not just flags, but context, business impact, and remediation code.

---

What is TerraSecure?

TerraSecure is an intelligent, shift-left security scanner for Terraform and HCL Infrastructure as Code. It integrates directly into developer workflows — as a GitHub Action, Docker container, or CLI tool — and surfaces security issues with the context a developer actually needs to fix them.

Traditional Scanner:"Security group allows SSH from 0.0.0.0/0"
TerraSecure:         "92% confidence · CRITICAL · Capital One-style
                       attack vector · GDPR exposure · 3-step fix"

Three layers of intelligence:

• Rule Engine — 50+ hardened security patterns across AWS resources
• ML Model — XGBoost classifier with 50 engineered features, 92.45% accuracy
• AI Analysis — AWS Bedrock (Claude 3 Haiku) explains impact, attack paths, and fixes

Why TerraSecure?

	Checkov	Trivy	TerraSecure
Detection Method	Rules only	Rules only	ML + Rules + AI
Accuracy	~85%	~88%	92.45%
False Positive Rate	~15%	~12%	10.71%
Business Impact Context	✗	✗	✓ AI-generated
Real Breach Examples	✗	✗	✓ Capital One, Uber, Tesla
Attack Scenario	✗	✗	✓ Step-by-step
ML Risk Score	✗	✗	✓ 50-feature scoring
Code Fix Examples	Generic	Generic	✓ Resource-specific
SARIF / GitHub Security	✓	✓	✓
Offline Mode	✓	✓	✓
GitHub Marketplace	✓	✓	✓

Best practice: Use TerraSecure alongside Checkov/Trivy for complementary coverage. TerraSecure's ML layer catches contextual risk that rule-based tools miss; established scanners provide breadth.

⚡ Quick Start

GitHub Actions

Add to .github/workflows/security.yml:

name: TerraSecure IaC Scan
on: [push, pull_request]

permissions:
  security-events: write

jobs:
  terrasecure:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
      - uses: JashwanthMU/TerraSecure@v2.0.0

[CRITICAL] S3 bucket is publicly accessible
  Resource : aws_s3_bucket.customer_data
  File     : infrastructure/storage.tf:12
  ML Risk  : 95% | Confidence: 92%

  ── AI Analysis ────────────────────────────────────────────
  Explanation:
    This S3 bucket is configured with ACL "public-read", exposing
    all objects to unauthenticated internet access. The bucket name
    signals the presence of sensitive customer data.

  Business Impact:
    Regulatory: GDPR fines up to €20M / 4% global revenue
    Financial:  Data breach avg. cost $4.88M (IBM 2024)
    Legal:      Breach notification obligations in 50+ jurisdictions

  Attack Scenario:
    Automated scanners (bucket-stream, S3Scanner) continuously probe
    for public buckets. Upon discovery, full object enumeration and
    exfiltration can occur within minutes — no authentication required.
    ⚠ Capital One (2019): 100M records exposed, $190M settlement.

  Fix:
    Step 1: Set ACL to private
      acl = "private"

    Step 2: Enforce Block Public Access
      block_public_acls       = true
      block_public_policy     = true
      ignore_public_acls      = true
      restrict_public_buckets = true

    Step 3: Enable server-side encryption
      sse_algorithm = "AES256"
