I came across a job description that mentions the responsibility to 'implement secure infrastructure with IaC tools.' I'm trying to wrap my head around what exactly this involves. Does it really just mean using something like Terraform in a CI/CD pipeline, along with secure scanning tools like Trivy, SCA, or SAST? I apologize if this seems like a basic question, but I'd appreciate any clarity you can provide!

You’re right on track with using IaC tools like Terraform. The idea is to build secure infrastructure and probably include security scans as part of your CI/CD process.
Yeah, it often involves using CI/CD pipelines to deploy secure infrastructure with Terraform specifically.
The job description is pretty vague; it might be that even the recruiter and hiring manager aren't entirely sure what they mean. Essentially, you need to ensure that the final infrastructure is secure, though it doesn’t explicitly require integrating scanning tools.
Exactly! You have to use cloud security features wisely to keep your setup safe.
